Subject: Re: Honda boxes vs Givi boxes
I've got them, and I like them and not. They're only 30 l apiece and I feel
the
plastic casting is thick (In the lid, it feels like 3-4 cm thick) so feels
like a little waste
of space, but on the other hand, they're very robust.
I have the side boxes and the topbox and it's enough for two persons and an
extended
weekend trip anyway. With the tent on the topbox and the sleepingbags on top
of the sideboxes,
I didn't feel any problem even in 140 kms.
Larger boxes, may get disturbed by wind perhaps.
Anyway, the lock may feel small, but are nice. Two locks on lid and one to
lock onto frame.
All locks have slided cover.
All in all, I'm fairly satisfied with them. (I wouldn't take them for a four
week tour though :-)
Cheers
Matz
