Probably stay on better than the CooCase, too. Screw it... I'm ordering the larger one until I can get things worked out with Twisted Throttle. My communications with them suggest that this might take a bit of time.
Thanks for the heads up.

$15.50?? That's beyond cheap.
AND it comes with a radioactive sign for when you're carrying Uranium - sweet.

I thought the $45 with free shipping on the medium case was a good deal. It's tempting to buy another case even though I don't need one at that price.

I bought two of the silver cases with Maltese Cross inserts for $51.99 shipped here to Canada.
Add the price of a can of bed liner at $9.50 and I have to road going side cases for my KLR.
The maltese crosses I will put double stick tape on the back and sell them as biker nipple pasties on ebay for $24.89 each.

Now, the other cases (the matte black units) were not sealed well enough for side case use. Are these? I have my doubts, but what they hey, I ordered two of them.
This deal is beyond good, really. I can at least use them as top cases.
We have been abusing the matte black topcase for a few years, and it's held up well. The maltese cross must be some sort of joke, nobody likes it.

I filled in the space after I pulled the cross off. Then I threw a Twisted Throttle sticker over that.

Just a heads up,-
I also bought one of these large cases.
Worked well for a week until the cheap metal latch broke into pieces.
I would have lost the case but for the hellacious rattle I heard
going down the road.
I was able to bungee the case down till I got home.
Now I have GIVI as well.

Hmm.. well, it's an inexpensive experiment at least. We don't travel far enough to lose very much. Wife puts on about five miles a day going to and from work, so if she loses anything in that short distance, she can at least return to the scene.
It appears they are back up to full price, so I wonder what that was all about? Memorial Day sale?
