A company on ebay is selling them and I was wondering if anyone here has one, or knows of somebody who has one, and do they like it?

My ridin' buddy Jack has one on his Kawasaki Concours 1000 its pretty cheap lookin' IMO with dinky locks.Look at GIVI I had one on my Suzuki Bandit and Normandog has one on his Standard.You can remove it with the push of a button and it has a built-in hidden handle to carry like a suitcase.

I used one to mount into my reciever hitch.  The latch/lock is not very good and it comes open sometimes. The trunk is not water tight as there is no seal around the lid.  But it looks pretty decent.  It serves my purposes.

You might also search for Bestem trunk on Ebay. Several forums I have visited say this trunk is a great buy at under $100. It is a near copy of the GIVI trunk.

I had one.  They are very cheaply made and the locks fall  apart from any vibration.  I had to rework it more than once.  Also, the lights are cheap.
