I've been looking for a trunk box for my 2011 Wee. The MCM cases look nice, but I ran across this Ridgid tool box at Home Depot tonight. $29. It would need the upper panel - which prevents small items in the lower removable compartments from coming out - removed. That looks like an easy job. Lockable with padlocks, and with a nice heavy gasket for waterproofing.

One of the reviewers has had a similar motorcycle idea, with photos.

^^^^ That looks similar to guys who use a Pelican for a top box. The HD version is a better price. Seems worth a try.

That's what I thought. The Ridgid one looked very well constructed for its $29 price tag. Just remove that interior panel in the lid to get access to the full height.

I'm attaching photos from the one review at Home Depot. The poor guy isn't riding a V-strom.

Here's a link to his Home Depot profile, which contains his review. http://reviews.homedepot.com/profiles/1999aa/ky2dyiphybr9giaqlzyuqdomp/profile.htm
