Anyone know which weighs more....

[Sergeant Pluck]

Touratech alu topbox (the smaller one) or the normal bog standard plastic BM topbox?

I can't find the weights for the BM one anywhere.

Cheers!

Why

My money is on the plastic one being heaviest

Posted a BUM top box and mounting plate and the receipt shows 9.8kg.
That did include the box, which might explain the .8.

Thanks for that Noddy - that makes the Touratech considerably lighter than the BM plakky thing.

Vern - obvious, no?!! I've got the BM one which I took off for the first time in about a year the other day - and it nearly ripped my arms out of their sockets!! I've grown to find a topbox indespensible - so I'm going to get a 'proper' one - and it needs to be as light as possible - not good for handling having all that bulk hanging high up off the back of my bike... and it really shows having ridden it sans box now.
