Made the plunge!

OK OK
I have thought about this for long enough. :04biker:
I have decided and I have ordered the 04 blue hondaline topbox $499, the topbox spolier with light $369, and the connecting harness $20, plus $28 shipping from cruiserbackrest. I know the Givi would have been a lot less money but this is a bike that I plan to have for a long time and I think it's worth the extra money. :D

Now, what do I need next?

I'm sure you'll be happy with it. It does look good.

I just did the same thing. I went with the other company, sporttouringUSA. Cruisebackrest uses paypal and don't use it or want to.

Been there, done that (and more), and the list goes on....and on... and on....:03biker:

I think you will like it. In 6 months you'll forget the price.

[Kennedy]

Your right there. Once its bolted on the bike the high cost of that Honda part will only be a memory and it does look so good.

I agree with seiseman and Kennedy ... the price will be forgotten. I'm not wealthy, but i went with the Hondaline box (from David Silver Spares) because of the looks. IMHO, it looked "right" and proper. I thought that I would only use it when touring, but find that I seldom take it off. It's that useful.

Enjoy the machine; there are bigger things than saving a buck ... :)
