Assuming I fix my charging problems!

I am thinking about picking up a larger top box. I like the outdoorsman but it is only 5L larger than the Journey I have right now. The 50L journey seem to make more sense.

Anybody with either of these topboxes got any comments?

Sorry, I do not have either one, but do know you can put two full face helmets in the outdoorsman.

I have the standard XT journey, and would love an outdoorsman!

Flatter - not as tall, longer, would fit my laptop perfect. Really would love the whole set, any body wanna trade???

I got a 50L Journey (yes, Journey), from eurotechmotorsports.com. Great box, "matches" the OEM sidecases, and holds 2 fullface helmets. I also bought eight lock cylinders at the same time (something silly like $7 each), so all four of my bags are keyed alike now.

And yes, I painted it myself.

I like the look of the painted bags. I want to do that to mine also. I like the sign of the guy falling off the bike, thats great.

Actually it looks like the guy is stunt riding his bike over a rainbow or possibly a bridge. LOL

Ratbuell is that a red weatherstrip seal around the edge of your side case or reflective tape?
I haven't had any major problems with my bags leaking, but it would be nice to fill the gap just in case.
Thanks

Red reflective tape.

No leaks on my bags, even sitting out during the monsoon at WVBR this year.

What is that weird red motorcycle?

That 50L does not look that much different. I am going to check that out.
