top box and side cases totaling 132 liters total
this is a stock suzuki luggage rack with the backrest-sissybar portion cut off to allow a 52 liter kappa top case, i then bought 2 used v-storm oem sidecases, made by kappa , 40 liters a piece, and made homemade mounts using 17.00 worth of hardeware, and scrap plywood. none of them are quick release , but i had a smal top box that was detachable and in 2 years never removed it so i figured it wasnt that important.the bike rides the same, i took a 110 mile trip , did 70 mph on I-5, i checked all mounts and everything is solid, and stable on bumps and hwys,and got the same 75 mpg, its a lil heavy feeling when you get it off the kickstand and push out the driveway, but then cant tell the difference.i ride 2 up a lot my wife likes the setup, says it makes her feel less leg wind.i basicly havent used the cage all summer.
