I like the ADV styling, seems a little bit square for the CB.
I can say the jackets are sweet, after a couple months now it's thumbs up for my Klim Latitude jacket.
Tell Jim, nice find on the pictures.

Of someone would have said I'm thinking about putting some of those big ADV cases on my CB 1100, I'd have thought really? That's going to look terrible...but surprisingly it doesn't.

The little CB looks like the front wheel would come off the ground if you fully loaded all those boxes!

It looks surprisingly OK. And very effective to boot.

Just had a quick look at their website. Some great photos there.

Let's see some CB's in the dirt!

It was surprisingly stable over loose surfaces and washboard, but the short suspension travel was less than optimal and it took a long time to clean all the dust out of the nooks and crannies.

Glad you posted this. I wondered what square boxes would look like...I've been thinking about mounting a couple ammo cans on my bike as cargo cases. I thought they'd give the bike some storage while retaining a retro feel. The square boxes do look good.
