Apart from Touratech...........
And Metal Mule, does anyone know any decent hard luggage suppliers??
I`m getting one of the new XTZ Tenere`s when they come out. The factory hard luggage looks rubbish.

Thanks

Try ALLIT, They are German, I got mine brand new on ebay on a 'buy it now' The guy who deals with them is most helpful. and BTW, at the time £158 per pair incl posting, google Allit and see pictures of them on the honda xrv site.

For higher end kit
... and also custom made options have a look at these. They are worth a call: you get a lot more for your money in terms of finish and strength than TT, IMO.

Taschen

or Alpos (cheaper, less strong, but good value)

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
