Bike Box --> Where to get?

[Guest Jade]

Don't really know the sizes in particular, but it's mighty big. the previous owner told me he got the biggest he can get!!

 

hehehe...and you're right, I squeeze! boh pian, and moreover, it's the one of the perks bikers can have compared to car drivers - to get through jams faster!! of course must squeeze....

[BabyVTEC]

get a new one just nice for full face can already.....

match the colour of ur s4 ..it wont look ugly....

[Guest Jade]

The colour matches, just that having a box is not that nice already... just my thought

one thing about bike boxes and panniers...if you dun have a matching colour...get the conventional matt black...nothing beat traditional beauty...

and the position of the box like the height should be adjusted as close to the bike as possible..you should have seen some ah peh riders especially, they put their back boxes too high up...it created more vibrations and the joints will go faster....and...to me personally, quite distasteful lah

think stick to Givi or the 2 other brands....give zeus a skip...their box is like their helmet...cheap but cannot use long...

its just like Bata boots compared with Red wings....

[Guest koyok]

say....what are side panniers? Are they kinda like side boxes? I was thinking of getting side boxes for my Super 4. Right now, I have a big back box from the previous owner.

 

Side box better or back box leh? can put a full face helmet on it or not?

 

Actually, I don't really like the Super 4 with back box, but practical, boh pian...

 

Actually S4 without the box looks really nice. I've thought of getting a box for my S4 too 'cos I used to ride a lao-S with a box and I like the convenience but it makes us look like those uncles riding S4 (no offence here ). I think since you got a box already there's no point getting more lor... wat do you to keep inside, your wardrobe?

Just my 2 cents worth...

 

Oh and if you getting 2 sideboxes, get white colour ones, then spray your bike totally white. It'll scare the living daylights out of those hardcore hell-riders on the highways

No lah, not thinking of getting MORE, thinking of replacing it!! Take out the back box and side ones instead... But then again, it'll look kinda cumbersome and squeezing may be a problem too...

 

Save money...

[Brembo]

Jade sis,

suggest u stick to ur back box lah....more convenient leh...dun ya tink so?

cus one thing about side boxes, the small ones can only accomodate your raincoats....forget about getting the big ones...else u be the first S4 rider to perform this ridiculous feat

 

y not change ur back box to bigger one?

[MrBoliao]

I saw a yellow S4 with police sticker on it , that carries 3 big givi matching boxes (mabbe custom paint), looks ok-er than the small givi sides leh...

Yah I agree. Since you squeeze thru cars so often it's best you get a bigger back box. Hey a bigger back box restricts your squeezing also cos big boxes are around the length of your handlebars to when you twist your handlebars as you squeeze thru, give your bike's ass a little thought too before it breaks those BMW/Mercedes' side mirrors ('thou I would really LOVE to do that! )

Aiyah... the thing is hor, it's already big! The previous owner told me that he got the biggest mah.... Gee...can't be getting anything bigger anymore?

 

I put 2 helmets into the box but my raincoat put in that wee comparment under the seat? Managed to squeeze in a pair of sandals too!

 

OK, I guess I'll stick to the back box thingy...

Fwah... 2 helmets, raincoat and sandals... your S4 weighs like a tank now...

I think you'll make a fashion statement

 

I saw an African Twin on PIE today with 2 huge side boxes. Looks very bulky and odd. I wonder how they installed the box with AT's exhaust so near to the seat?
