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

Re: tool kit idea

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.

Re: tool kit idea

Great idea , but as you say , why pay £60 for something you can get for £20 or less ????

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".
