i would say go for E21.

 

Practical, water proof, lockable........though lookswise is way too common......u can spray it in funky colours if you wan.

"trade in" for a new side pannier below $300

You can also think of a bigger side box that can fit your FF but that will mean that you' can't really squeese in between cars lor! Anyway, dun squeese better lah.

Lol coincidentially I lanesplit for about 2 kms of traffic jam earlier this morning. I noticed the pickups, cars and small lorries shift out of the way. So long as the speed is constant and not less than 30kph I'm more or less totally stable.

 

However I refuse to join the long chains of motorcycles clogging up into one bunch when the traffic is at a standstill because super-slow speed maneuvering on this machine is still iffy to me. So I just coast within the fastest moving lane aka Pureice mode They usually don't disturb me when they see hazard lights on.

 

E21s are not so hard to handle in a squeeze because they're almost similar to your handlebar width. Stock handlebars are better for squeezing not just from the smaller width but also the "hands forward" aka Superman stance.

Hahaha... Pureice mode!

Yes, self-spray $10. Primer + clearcoat for longer life paint. Save the $480 for 240 plates of chicken rice. More than you can tolerate eating for a year.

I'm interested in getting side panniers for my phantom.

Thinking of getting the Givi E21...LAB sell them for $180 including installation?

If I'm not wrong...their workshop is located at a location different from the shop right?

Does this means that I need to carry the boxes and ride to their workshop to have it installed?
