    Anyone ever used/heard of their kit.

    Considering it for the new purchase[1].

    Mainly cos they also do a rack for a CBX!

    [1] The pre-reg one has disappeared from the "special offers" page.

    Hopefully cos I expressed an interest in it.

    Otherwise the hand'll have go deeper into the pocket.

    I'm buying Hepco and Becker engine bars for my new bike because all the
    guys who've fitted them to the same model recommend them. From what
    I've seen of their luggage and racks it's a bit basic looking but very
    functional and extremely well made.

    I see a bright new future, where chickens can cross the road with no
    fear of having their motives questioned

    Heard, yes. They're pretty well regarded over in Boxheadland. Not cheap
    but it's what those touring types fit who don't want to fit big alloy
    Touratech panniers.

    Yes and yes, though my cases have Guzzi badges on them. Basically
    Guzzi seem to use standard luggage rebadged as their own, so I have a
    lopsided pair of (I think) the H & B Junior series. They don't get
    heavy usage but seem fine. Can't say how waterproof they are because I
    always put things into bin liners, but I have no recollection of the
    insides swimming. One minor point: I'm not sure who made the frames
    for the bike but they're pretty rusty after eight years.

    This particular model is quite wide (well, the left side 40L one is)
    but it just about takes a lid. The 30L one (the RH one is smaller to
    clear the exhaust) certainly won't take a lid.
