That is a bargain on a great trunk. I sold mine with the scooter.

I already own two of these travel trunks, and I am sorely tempted to buy a third one. ;)

The Garage Pro Travel Trunk sold by J.C. Whitney comes with a steel mounting plate. :D This is a rugged travel trunk. It will take a lot of abuse, and last for years. :)

If you order before Tuesday, you can get a 10 percent discount, and receive the large travel trunk for $40.46, delivered! Many of us bought the large trunk for $48, delivered, and it was an exceptional deal at that price. :D This is an amazing deal; you can't go wrong. ;)

Search ADVRider for reports on the J.C. Whitney Travel Trunk. Apparently you can also fit this travel trunk to Givi mounts. Some riders bought three of these trunks, and mounted them as saddlebags as well.

My J.C. Whitney Travel Trunk has taken a lot of abuse for several years. I like it so much, I bought a spare when they were on sale for $48, delivered. A price of $40.46, delivered, is an exceptional bargain! :D

These travel trunks come supplied with a very strong, metal mounting plate. The plastic mounting plates on some other trunks will fail. :(

You can pack a lot of stuff in the large travel trunks, and they are very easy to remove for the evening, or for hiding in the brush while taking an impromptu, off road excursion.

These travel trunks are very handy when taking a multi-day trip. :D

These travel trunks are also quite handy for grocery shopping, or running other errands around town. :)

I can only use one trunk at a time, and I already have a spare trunk. ;) However, I'm still tempted to pick up another spare at this price. :lol:

thanks, i've been looking at these type of trunks. Does it seem halfway secure? Or could someone pop it open with a screwdriver in 5 seconds?

I realize these are not going to be extremely secure, I just want it to take more than a few seconds to break into it (and it will be broken into here).

I would not call them secure, but I never carried valuables in mine either. The do securely attach to the bike.

If you are concerned just unsnap it and carry it inside with you.

I use my travel trunks all the time to go grocery shopping and to run errands on my motorcycles. These trunks are also very convenient if you are taking a trip lasting several days. ;)

Installed mine, no issues except for the bolts dig into the rear fender-but it's just a TMEC, so not worth much :lol:

I like that my helmet can fit in there. I ride to work, and the less stuf I have take into prison (i.e. my cell phone had to be hidden under my seat as they are big no no's there), the better!

One of the nice features of the Garage Pro Travel Trunk is the metal mounting plate. :)

The medium Garage Pro trunk is nice, but I still prefer the large trunk, which usually sells for the same price as this medium trunk. ;)

Yes, both the large and medium travel trunks attach to the metal mounting plate with a keyed lock. Both size trunks are easily removed after you unlock them. These travel trunks, and the metal mounting plate itself, are very robust, and will last a very long time. :tup:
