Hey TT, any luck finding a trunk for your Met? I hear that the Honda OEM trunks are not that great and are hard to find. I am looking to probably getting something like this:


www.cbxmanmotorcycles.com/Shad-Sh-29-Scooter-Top-Box-Motorcase-Medium-Capacity.aspx
but am waiting for my rear carrier to arrive.

I really want one of these:

but they are so expensive and are not secured like the shad. Tell me what you think.

Well, although I really liked the tan rear carrier, I realized that it was not for me. First, it is too expensive and second it really is not practical for me. I need real storage for my Met. With all the crap I keep in the trunk under the seat, I am not always able to store my helmet there sometimes. The tan bag will never fit a helmet, also, the tan bag cannot be secured. So I went ahead and purchased a shad 29 liter trunk. The same one that I posted a picture of previously. I got it on ebay and I paid less than what it retails for because it has a small scratch. That does not bother me because I may paint it to match my Met anyway.

I got it for $72.63. Retails for $99. Saved me a couple of bucks!
