    tool kit idea

    im not taking credit for it and its not a bad idea at all,
    http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...E:B:SS:GB:1123
    (if the link no longer works, the ebay auction has ended. search ebay for "Toolkit Cases BMW GS KTM Varadero V-strom" hes got lots of others on there)


    in fact good luck to him, "fools and their money" etc etc

    but im not paying £60 for something i can get for £20

    mmm, good idea's especially the one that shows the Peli box mounted on the inner side of the pannier to fit between the pannier loops. I can feel a pair of these coming on for the Varadero.

    Great idea , but as you say , why pay £60 for something you can get for £20 or less ????
    2011 Triumph Tiger 800 - "Black Pussy" - MMMM Nice !!!
    2000 Suzuki DRZ400S - "Ol' Yella" - very bright
    2011 Peugeot V-Clic 50cc - "Scoot" - It's my wife's, an enjoyable ride.

    I have a house , but I can't guarantee it's safe !!

    I suppose you are paying for the idea, trouble is the guy's business model is flawed - everyone will look at the pictures and say "cracking idea, I will buy the Peli boxes for £20 and fit them myself".
