Concourse Top Box
Hi Everyone, My name is Sergio. I am a tech rep for corbin, We are currently in development of some new products for the onny 1400. At this time we are working on a Top box .
If any of the Concourse owners have any suggestions or ideas for things that you would like to see us build for your bike we would love to hear them. At Corbin we are a customer driven company and really value your opinion and your feedback .Thanks in advance,
Sergio

Geez...you guys work on stuff for these bikes all the time... Ever see an E on the end of the name? Its CONCOURS. God thats annoying. I should feel confident knowing my seat pan and stuff is going somewhere, spending hundreds of dollars, where they work on Concourse onny 1400's????
Mike would be ashamed.

Hugger.
There are plenty of top boxes around, so why reinvent the wheel? But ther's no hugger. Shelve the TB and make a rear wheel hugger.

I have a few suggestions:
1. Make it match/compliment the side bags. Color & style wise.
2. Don't go crazy with the raised ribs that are on the side bags. There is enough ribs on the bike already.
3. Don't make it rounded so much...like the Givi top box. The Givi looks like it does not belong on the C-14/GTR. IMHO.
4. Make it sit low, not to tall.
5. Have a comfortable and useable passanger backrest

GIVI V46 base plate fits straight on, then slip the givi box straight on!

 Agreed on all the above plus
6. Make a strong sturdy baseplate which will allow easy removal of the Topbox similar to the sidebags.
