Hi there,

is there any small side box available?

anyone has it?

 

cos i searched around mostly the medium to big ones e.g givi e21, HK, etc.

[jB]

anything smaller than 21 should be not worth it and makes no sense too hence not in production there is one that should be slightly smaller, go to LAB and ask

[ifourdesign]

Yes, some did it before.

LAB.

but IMO, not advisable as it'll leak via the lock catch area.

For side pods, you may seriously consider Givi's E21(21L), E36(36L) or even E20N(monolock) as they're not that big in side giving the rider problems in built up traffic.

Otherwise, if width is nt a problem for you, there's always E41s...

 

For the aforementioned E21 & 36, its under Monokey, which is a universal rack.

If use Monolock, better to have metal baseplates for attaching on.

thanks KeV. but do u happen to know roughly how much would the damage be on the pocket

I got a set of E21s for $250 (that means 125 each) including brackets. You can likely get them for cheaper from other places. I didn't put on a top box as it would make the machine look top heavy.

Yup, same as mine! Box + installation = S$180.00.

Few questions here.

 

1. Is e36 and e45 the same? I googled it and it appeared to be the same thing to me. Or is e36 the side boxes and e45 the top box? Or it doesn't make a difference?

2. Is it able to fit a helmet, or better, 2 (referring when used as side box)?

2. Will e36/e45 leak water if used as side boxes?

3. Is the normal top box phantom users have E450? Will it leak if we use it as side boxes?

 

For your professional advise please!

1. it may look the same but size is surely not the same

2. e45 sld be able to fit helmets in, not sure abt e36

3. if the boxes are ment to be side box den very unlikely it can leak, givi is a pretty well known brand

4. there are many different top box ard, its safest to use a box which are ment to be side box if u really want a side box, otherwise it MAY leak coz they may not be constructed to resist water side ways

[weian]

mm ok sure thanks bro!

[Chrisboy]

of course its first hand!

 

Pai Sei my bad wad i mean was unless find 2nd hand will be cheaper ?
