Damn! I wanted to post this before the pictures showed up. Dude! You didn't answer my text. So, I thought you were sleeping or something! 
Kudos to our Resident Reverend Doctor, Sir Howie of the Radio!! :yahoo:
Ok so, I spent several hours with him and he showed me everything. The box that he has being made now that he said was a lot more "User Friendly" is the New Box.
All that means is that it has a Flat bottom as opposed to the Original Box with the recesses that the Base Plate fits in. That Orig. one is for our OEM Tail. If you want to mount it on the OEM Top Box Plate, (Like I do)That would be the New one. It's Flap and you can sit it on anything flat.
These boxes are made of thick walled plastic that will last forever. Double walled on the bottom piece. The hinge is very well made. It's stainless and has Reinforcing plates on both ends. He says it's absolutely Waterproof.
He looked at the Rear Seat pocket to see if it will work. It Will but, he'd have to make the Mount high enough to clear everything when you open it. I think It'll work well. He said that for the people who want to mount it on top of the rear seat, a creative Velcro strap will do the trick until a mount is made.
I thought it might stick out too far on the OEM Top box plate but, I was wrong. It'll work just fine. He might have to trim a little bit of the forward part of the Universal plate due to the Rear of the Hand hold piece on our bikes. He wanted me to take my Top box Plate off but, told him the heads are stripped and it would be a nightmare at his shop.
And YES!! that's a 1.5gal fuel pack tank for you Mile Monsters out there who might think that's a neat idea.
Falko, the Front of the box is 14" wide and the rear of the box is 10" wide. All other measurements are the same as the website says. I took a lot of different views so all of you guys can see it on the bike. I had a blast doing this.
Oh, I did ask him about any possible Group Buy situation and he said his pofit margin is pretty thin but, He'll do 10% off on a minimum order of 5. 15% off on a minimum order of 10. He also said that if you want the new flat bottom box, there is no Inner or Outer Plate needed so, $75 off the price of the Original!
Now you can begin the questions. I have a Tall Rum and Coke poured and I'm at your service! :lol:
