Yep, ugly but handy.

Yes. In the part they call Canada. Be sure to carry a concealed weapon when you go up there to pick one up. They like that.

Thanks Dakez, should I pack a pistol or a knife? I never quite know what to bring to Canada, It's almost as bad as going to New Jersey.

Found these on another forum.

Very cool. Is this guy on here?

Yo, DAKEZ-

Thought you'd appreciate hearing I just finished bolting a Givi plate to the new FJR...

That Z1000 system is nicely done.

I sort of like my top box. Original owner called it the shoe. Nice to lock up stuff on errands and such, but off road on my poor man's KLR I will not take it. I had my laptop, paper stuff and food in mine in my fly and ride.

Gonna make a dog carrier for the KLR, cut out the top of a pet carrier where the handle is so she can see. My Aussie will go exploring with me soon.

It beats strapping on a backpack.

HAH- because it's too small to be a boot.

Depends on the backpack I guess. Look into a Kriega.

Left to right: At the very left edge is the TOPBOX on my DRZ400SM;
the back part of my Tiger 800XC and it's TOPBOX;
behind that you can see the yellow handguard and TOPBOX of the KLR650 that BoyChild rides;
dead center is the new hotness 2013 FJR1300 and AWACS-sized TOPBOX;
to the right of that is Spouse Unit's Speed Four and it's TOPBOX;
and in the bottom right corner is my Aprilia Falco which doesn't currently have a TOPBOX on it- but there is a mounting plate for a TOPBOX under that tarp.

Only bike that doesn't have one, or means of carrying one- and believe me, I thought long and hard on how to do it- is the VTR250 behind me.
