I have just fitted the Honda top box to my NT700. Has anyone any inkling as to why it is designed to move side to side?? It really does seem as queer as a nine bob note.

I agree. Plus, mine got "wobbly" after a while, so my solution was to tighten the bolts (that they specifically tell you not to tighten all the way) as tight as I could. Voila, no more wobbly top box and no more sillyness about a "floating" top box.That's one of the goofiest ideas I've ever heard.
i'm not 100% sure what you mean by "like other brands" but it does have a quick release. Remember that the Honda top box is just a rebadged Givi box. The float mechanism is in the mount.I'm guessing that the Honda top box does not have a quick release mechanism like other brands.
You just have right at it, Roger, and we'll all say, "Right, then. Bob's your uncle." (That sounds Brit-like to me, but probably isn't.) All my Brit-vernacular comes from my favorite motorcycle magazine, "Bike."I still try tro use the vernacular
So I guess the "American English" translation would be "Queer as a 3 dollar bill.""Queer as a nine bob note" is a old one. A bob used to be a shilling before we were over run by the common market. There was no such thing as a nine bob note.
Givi and Coocase are the only other's I'm heard of. Glad to hear there is a quick release on the Honda top box. Thanks.i'm not 100% sure what you mean by "like other brands" but it does have a quick release.
Of course you can tell that one here. IF it's a new one. I love clergy jokes, but there are hardly ever new ones. And the old ones are...well...just old.A Priest, a Rabbi, and a Minister walk into a bar.....
Wait, better not tell that one here.
AAh saay old sport, spot on what! Jolly good show. It must have been Churchill who said, "If the natives don't understand you, just speak louder"So I guess the "American English" translation would be "Queer as a 3 dollar bill."
