Top box users

So am anticipating purchasing a Crosstourer when available in the U.S.  Have seen many pics of people running top box only with no side case . I think for me a top box only would be sufficient storage for most ventures , gives the bike a more tidy appearance and exposes that beautiful rear swing arm. On my NT I rarely ride without the top box. No major effect on handling but I do notice it's back there when quickly running through curvy sections and in low speed maneuvers. My question is , do you folks running top box on the Crosstourer notice much ill effect on handling. Would like to fit a box from a VFR 1200 f when I get my Crosstourer.  Thanks in advance for any information or insight.

Hi Soupbean, effect at 200 kilometers an hour: zero !

Can't say I've ever noticed any difference running with the topbox and the Givi Trekker 52 litre is massive.

Thanks all ! Have heard the Honda Crosstourer top box was recently redesigned ( no zipper ) . Think I want to go for a little different look though.  GeoftheChef, that GIVI box looks like it was made for your bike , the lines and color blend perfectly .👍👍

Never faced a big difference even with that fat ass look :)
