guzzi850m2 Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Rear fender. I was you I would go and buy that PCX and then consider the top box later on. On my pcx I was also considering a top box but due to the huge space under the seat not necessary so I never bought one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Conners Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Hi Phil, You can consider also Cocoase V36 with changable color lid to match your new PCX. Some additional options like remote/alarm, inner trunk light, inner liner, back rest and even mobile charger are also available. (Stop light or brake light is our standard feature for all Coocase topcases) Our smaller case start from 2000 baht for a Vivo S28 (28 litres) to Reflex V50 (50 Litres) size, some of our customer choose a bigger S48 (48 litres) or V50 (50 Litres) for their new PCX, you can check our more photo and full price list on our facebook fan page : https://www.facebook.com/coocasethailand Just to add on, we are offering free delivery all over Thailand with 7 days money back guarantee. Should you not satisfy with your Coocase, just send it back to us and we'll give you a full refund with 3 working days upon receiving it in same good condition. Actually I did have a look at your FB page but couldn't find a price list. Could you give me the URL please? The pictures are interesting, but would be more useful if you mention on each picture which box we're looking at. Just an idea... I think 30L seems like a good compromise size. Bigger than that and they seem too bulky for my taste. Rear fender. I was you I would go and buy that PCX and then consider the top box later on. On my pcx I was also considering a top box but due to the huge space under the seat not necessary so I never bought one. Ah yes, fender, duh! For various reasons I'm not ready to buy the PCX just now. How much larger is the space in a PCX than an Airblade or a Nuovo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Phil, All those photo I attach above are PCX with V36, and I do agree that 48 or 50 litres seem a little too big but everyone have their own preference. In our facebook under "Our Customer" album do have some explaination of which bike using which box, link are as follows : PCX with V36 https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.314683308634823.48663.274149116021576&type=3 https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=333127626790391&set=a.314683308634823.48663.274149116021576&type=3&theater https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=332242576878896&set=a.314683308634823.48663.274149116021576&type=3&theater https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=333127643457056&set=a.314683308634823.48663.274149116021576&type=3&theater https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=333731393396681&set=a.314683308634823.48663.274149116021576&type=3&theater https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=333998160036671&set=a.314683308634823.48663.274149116021576&type=3&theater https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=351146928321794&set=a.314683308634823.48663.274149116021576&type=3&theater PCX with S40 https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=350822365020917&set=a.314683308634823.48663.274149116021576&type=3&theater PCX with S48 & V50 https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=363643323738821&set=a.314683308634823.48663.274149116021576&type=3&theater https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=368517916584695&set=a.314683308634823.48663.274149116021576&type=3&theater So you are right, and you can see most of our PCX customer choose V36 instead of S48 or V50 Price list also attach in this forum, and here's the facebook link for the price list : https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=361751663927987&set=a.361749853928168.1073741837.274149116021576&type=3&theater Best Regards P.S.

guzzi850m2 Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 For various reasons I'm not ready to buy the PCX just now. How much larger is the space in a PCX than an Airblade or a Nuovo? I never ridden the Airblade or Nuovo so can't say. The space is big, we can just put 2 pilot helmets in the deep part of the space and then you have the narrow space behind that for a rain coat and a lock. Go and look at somebody's pcx somewhere - shop- friend or whatever. The fuel tank is not under the seat like on most local bikes but in the frame forward.

Phil Conners Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 Sure, I've been meaning to go to a dealer and have a closer look anyway, but for now I found the picture below on the Internet. Is it the same here? It seems a little bit larger than the storage space on the Airblade, but not much. I can fit a full face helmet as well and have some space available in the rear just like this.

BSJ Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 My HUMBLE apologies to everyone that read my post regarding the top box and rack I purchased for my Yamaha Nouvo E. The place I ordered it from is : http://www.auto2speed.com/product-th-861842-GIVI+BOX.html My wife phoned in the order for the box and rack. However I see now that the rack is listed at 550 baht. I could swear that my wife told me it was 450 baht. I did not use www.helmet2home as I indicated in a previous post. Very sorry about that. Wantan, you should see the rack mounting options in the same link posted above. Thanks for the link. I'm thinking about getting a box for my Airblade and this thread has been very helpful! I've more or less decided on the GIVI E30 TOUR 30 liter pictured below. If anyone has any good reasons I shouldn't buy this box speak now or forever hold their ... errrmmm.. I'm already considering my next bike might well be a PCX 150 - would this box still be reasonable with that? (different rack obviously). Anyway, one thing that's still holding me back is all the example mounts on that website have a really weird rack that seems to attach it to the ... sorry I don't know the English word for this bit, the bit that is over the wheel to protect from water and stuff? It looks weird. I'd have thought the rack should replace the hand rail thing behind the seat? Only 3kg load! That's a crock. I'd want at least double that load capacity.

Phil Conners Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Only 3kg load! That's a crock. I'd want at least double that load capacity. You're right, I hadn't actually noticed that, I guess I kinda read it as being the weight of the box or something. 3 kg is nothing, a trip to the baker. Is that normal for boxes like this? I kinda had the impression the Givi brand was one of the better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I kinda had the impression the Givi brand was one of the better? Yep, a 47liter box with a load of 3kg surely isn't meant for shopping AFAIK there are GIVI boxes with higher load. But higher prices too. For example the E55 Maxia 3 with a load of 10kg. Givi is one of the better brands. Other cheaper brands may tell you the load is 10kg for their box. But should you believe it? Givi tells you the truth i guess. So no suprises with boxes falling of your bike at 120kmh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poanoi Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 (edited) Dont trust the bargirls, bigger is better, i bought the biggest one i could find, and i fill it up most times i have to stock up. Edited August 27, 2013 by poanoi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macknife Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Hm, ok. Guess that's the end of that idea .... Why? Don't worry about it. It may say 3kgs but it can take much more. Isn't the strength in the bracket? I don't get how the box would fall off anyway, with just a few extra kilos. I'm sure if just filled with clothes etc it wouldn't be much more than 3kgs and you'll hardly go touring with a couple of shopping bags filled with heavy beer in the box.

Dont tell me that I got it wrong again ? when I ordered a rear rack and Givi top box for my bike the stipulation was that it must large onough and strong enough to hold a full box of long necks , Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would be surprised how much tightly packed clothes weigh. My wife owns a few clothes shops. About 5 months ago we went wholesale shopping in Bangers. After buying 4 big bags of clothes we got the lad from the shop to bring it down to the pick-up. I went to lift the first bag into the pick-up bed and I couldn't lift the bag! The lad had to help! And I workout at the gym 4 days a week! WE ENDED UP WITH 10 bags in the back and it noticeably effected the performance and handling. Don't underestimate the weight of clothing!

You maybe right! I will up my gym sessions to actual working out 90% of the time I am there...and increase the weight load another 10%. Can't have some sniggering little snot making me look bad in front of my wife. Edited August 28, 2013 by BSJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[yt] [/yt] I can confirm this issue for my Givi E26N top box. But not a big problem for me. I don't store my helmet in the box. But its very useful if i lose my key for the box.
