Hi,

only complaint, except pushing the rocket uphill of course, the the lack of topbox (UK) or trunk (US).

Looked at various sited, but cannot find one available in Europe that'll do the business.

Wanting to store two full face lids, and be able to add sympathetically to styling and colour match the paint and pin striping. I can send to a local painter for the paint, but I'm having trouble finding a nice looking box.

Has anyone solved this Triumph oversight?
 
I have a Mutazu trunk on mine and I can get one full face in it and it matches my bike.

I have a Givi E52 Maxia topcase, volume is 52 liter and it holds 2 full face helments. Also Admore lighting has a light kit that gives you tail, turn and brake lights. Dont buy the Givi light kit it only gives you brake lights.
 
I have the luggage rack on and I had to take off the backrest. I bought the universal mounting bracket and it mounted to the luggage rack easily just had to adjust it for the passenger riding position. It is a big trunk but on the Rocket it dont look that big.
 
somebody awhile back had put a hd trunk on their rocket but cant remember who he had pix
 
I know you are looking for hard luggage, but just in case ....

This is the link to pictures of Kuryakin's "tail gaiter" bag I picked up in Ocean City at their tent. It's the biggest piece of luggage they make, room for tons of stuff. It has removable inner dividers and a collapsible handle with wheels. It was really handy going around the hotel with the wheels, and easy to remove from the bike. It is a monster, but for travel it's perfect ... leaving on the bike permanently wouldn't be a good idea.
 
Take a look here -

It's a Scootworks "Supertrunk" on a Wompus rack. Will hold 2 full face helmets with plenty of room to spare. Hiigh quality fiberglass and really strong - but the hardware (hinges and latches) is crap. I don't regret buying it, but next time I'll spend a few hundred extra and get a Harley Tour Pak.
 
If anyone has seen my Key West set up I had something similar to what Hellfire is talking about. It was a good size, had wheels, four zippered pockets (two on each side) and was called a....ahem....T-Bag. I also bought the roll bag that could be strapped to it and they both came with plastic covers for use in the rain.
