Soft Trunk Bags
#11
As I mentioned, I have a Givi top trunk for my GSX and like it, but damned their stuff is insanely expensive!! Just the mounting plate ALONE is something like close to $300 on Revzilla, not to mention the additional cost of the trunk. Yes, the locking feature is nice (and important) as is being able to lock a helmet or two inside.

Man, I miss all the built-in storage on my FJR.

Seems storage on a bike these days is like real estate ($$Wink.

Storage = Freedom

Have I got this wrong? The mounting plate is around AU$90 on [url=https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/402642791004?chn=ps&_trkparms=ispr%3D1&amdata=enc%3A1nHih8t1cStmZHKonOUsgGA40&norover=1&mkevt=1&mkrid=705-139619-5960-0&mkcid=2&itemid=402642791004&targetid=1395284717449&device=c&mktype=pla&googleloc=9069009&poi=&campaignid=14475548396&mkgroupid=128101662393&rlsatarget=pla-1395284717449&abcId=9300653&merchantid=510825968&gclid=CjwKCAiAtdGNBhAmEiwAWxGcUs3e-Ugc26j2rhOEUYOPwebSokIqlNDyjsct2UZsxqfymENWLdALGBoC2V4QAvD_BwE]ebay or from a [url=https://www.sydneycitymotorcycles.com.au/givi-e251-nylon-monokey-universal-top-plate.html]Sydney motorcycle shop.

That should work. Kappa is owned by Givi and that appears to be a standard available Givi receptor format. I have been using that format on my bikes since 2012.

Even so, at $70, I think I got what I needed. Ordered this from Revzilla today:

I reccomend Rok Straps to keep that baby synched down nicely
