    Oh dear! Does this mean those spare fairing panels you got will be required after all? Hope you and sunhuntin are okay!

    I have no idea what the size of the one on my hornet is... ask Zapf, he would know.

    Carry plenty of stuff in it, very practical, but it can't take a helmet... if that helps sizing. I hardly notice its even there, even when fully loaded...

    headshake comment is interesting... and might explain why I get it when I ride no hands, or am standing on the footpegs with no hands

    Had one for 10-15 years or so - I got it from the UK as they weren't available here then (easily). Paid for itself many times over, especially for commuting. Make sure it can take your helmet - try it in the shop before you buy.
    Mine is a (don't laugh) "Charlie on the road" brand. Naff name, but it has been a good top box.

    oh just a small tip for using top-boxes... dont put glass bottles in there... they do break... and red bull energy drink makes everything pretty sticky...

    Try it now. Now that I have the document holders removed Its a 36L box. I did my grand challange with it on the back thru some pretty wicked wind, and hardly noticed it was there too. But keep in mind that is on a 198kg CB900.
