Greetings
I am glad I found this forum.
I have just bought a new DL650 and pick it up in the next few days.
I wanted to get the Suzuki top box and panniers but cannot afford them.
As soon as get it I will lost a pic.
I am based in the Manchester area. :text-imnewhere:

The boxes are good but make the bike very wide, there'll be no filtering!!
So bad I just had to get some poor fella to move his van so I could get into the bike shed.

You can filter with side boxes, you just need to be careful... a top box would be the best place to start if money's tight.
Don't get the Suzuki set as you can get cheaper and often as good, if not better quality elsewhere. Givi/Kappa are a good place to start but there's plenty of other choices available too, especially if you want metal.

My first time posting on the site. I have a 2007 650DL. My wife bought me the two Suzuki pannier boxes, without the rack, for Christmas, but I just won't be using them and are for sale. Any interest?
