45L Universal Motorcycle Top Case, Motorcycle Tail Box with Backrest & Handle, Waterproof Motorcycle Rear Top Box, Dual-key Storage Carrier Case, Aluminum Trunk Tour Tail Box for Store Helmet

This is the 45L Temsone Top Case mounted on the stock frame of a 2023 BMW 1250 GSA. The helmet in the picture is an XL Modular Sedeci full face helmet (not elongated). I Just took my first ride with it so I can’t speak to durability yet. I looks to me like there are several of these exact models under different brand names. So… I paid $184.39 (it’s currently listed at $179.00). For reference, since many will say if you own this bike, you can afford better accessories, I priced a comparable well known brand (starts with G, has 4 letters) to include the back pad, and bike specific mounting plate and it topped out at $780.00. I can replace this box nearly 3 more times at that price. Just because you can afford it doesn’t mean you should throw money away! It arrived on time and as expected with very good packaging.The Good:-Came with installation hardware (not great but adequate)-Came with the Back Pad included (see below)-Came with a universal rack (see below)- Also came with two sets of reflective “stickers” and alcohol wipes to install the 3M adhesive coated back pads- Includes a full padded liner inside the box with two pockets sewn in under the cover.-The stainless-steel latches seem sturdy and secure- There are handles on each side and solid loops for straps if you were so inclined to strap anything to the top of the boxThe Not So Good:-While the sides are an alloy of some sort, I believe the top and, more importantly, the hinges are plastic-There were no mounting instructions at all but it’s pretty straight forward. Had two sets of screws (long and short) with washers and locknuts which were not easy to secure…-The back pads are loose in the box and are applied by sticking them to the box (2 pieces). Not sure they will hold up in heavy sun exposure and the smaller top piece sticks into your passenger’s spine when you lean back on it. I might just take that off.Overall, I’m pleased with the way it looks and initially how it performs. I can fit my helmet, gloves and few smaller items in there or just pick up a few groceries otherwise. I chose not to put the reflective stickers on it as I liked the all-black look. For the money, you really can’t go wrong here… As always, I hope this review helps someone in the decision making process. I will revise if needed after some real world use.
