Especially for the price...$80.

Don't really care for the latch mechanism though...

Just looking at the picture...it appears to be a little narrower than the IS trunk...but it does seem to have a decent size to it.  Also, the IS trunk has the brake and running lights in it so you would have to do something about that.

Might be a option for someone with a Std/Tourer that would like to make up a quick release trunk solution on the cheap.

It claims:  "TRUNK IS AN EXACT REPLICA OF HONDA INTERSTATE TRUNK"....I'm assuming it means in size and general shape because it certainly isn't an "exact replica."

Yes indeed on the FCR...looking forward to it!

Exact in this case means a similar facsimile thereof, and obviously not exact.  LOL But as we can agree...definitely an affordable option for a suitable replacement or as a new addition to a bike withouts.  I've seen them on other bikes (VTXs) I believe.

Wonder how it compares to the I/S trunk re. size, anybody know?

The last three pictures have dimensions noted on them.

I had this thread on the list for awhile before opening it.  I was wondering what on Earth is an Interstate Truck?

   By the look of the page itself and it's wording. I'm guessing it is the same guy that sells the bag rails. I am very happy with the rails to this point. Hopefully the truck is the same. As Punisher stated, ideal to use as a quickie on/off truck.  Cool Has my interest.

An interstate truck is a large 18 wheel trailer, some times with more than one trailer.  You can see a lot of them between Topeka and Denver on Interstate 70.  Don't know what that has to do with luggage bags on motorcyles, though. ???   Wink  Hoser

I appreciate your consideration.  It may not be enough, though.  I stay pretty well tangled up most of the time.

It's actually a very common mistake and within context it's pretty easy to discern but standing alone on a title list for some reason I found it bewildering.

This appears to be an knock off (pretty much exact) of the Tsukayu trunk, without the lining, worse latch, and no paint.

Dimensions appear to be pretty much right on as well.

I had the Tsukayu, it is a quality item, worth the price. The eBay one, who knows?
