Its rare that manufacturing companies are transparent with their processes and challenges. IMO, most consumers are unaware of the detailed process involved in developing feature rich products. Your passion for the design/mfg process and attention to detail will be evident in the final product. Thanks for sharing.
Great stuff! Can’t wait for the email letting us know they’re available for purchase!
Andrew, It looks great,I also can't wait to see the finished product and the sizing it comes in.
I love these cases, looks like a very hard process for sure, great video!!
Love it! Looking forward to buying one when available
Very impressive, and a lot of hard work and thought goes behind everything that gets fabricated from start. A lot of trial and error to make something strong and not too heavy. i’ve always liked quality over cheap. I come from a background of Welding fabricating and riveting. Keep up the good work and good luck. I would definitely buy your product.
Super interesting progress reports. I now view Lone Rider products with enormous respect🕊️
So much thought put into it, can't wait to see the end product. Also waiting on your lights
WOW that's awesome. Thanks for all the explanations.
Good looking top case. Prefer soft cases for most applications but on long distance ride a hardcase is definitely much more secured.
always interesting hearing how you develope the equipment.
Great stuff ! i'm really looking forward to seeing the finished product, getting my wallet ready too ! 🤣 nice one.....
Great IDEA!!! FWIW: just my 2 cents: I think it would be important to consider the option of providing the same Molle attachment on the FRONT of the box, sitting toward the rider: explanation: When you're riding loaded, you don't want to put even more weight far back hanging off behind your back wheel. It is better having the weight more forward toward the center of the bike. If you don't have a pinion, then it's the better choice. If you're with pilion, then you have enough weight as it is... 🥴🥴🥴. Great development, would consider this for city and short distances, but prefer soft luggage on longer trips - they take more time to get sorted out, but are safer and take at least as much punishment as hard boxes, if not more...
Super! Exceeding yourselves as always… 🤜🏻🤛🏻
Wow so so much gos into the development and building etc never really thought about it but Many Thanks Really Informative explanation Thanks Lone Rider 🤟😈👍☘️😊
You've made what is normally a very ugly top box design into something beautifully functional. Good job!
Love it, will deff be interested when it's ready for sale. 🙂
Thanks for sharing - really fascinating insight. And I want the box...
Looks really nice and functional. I like that we can attach things on the sides. I‘ll order that one for sure😁 cool thing🤙🏼
The look great. Love the finishing pieces that have been added.

Thank you! Cheers!
O vosso trabalho, no aperfeiçoamento de malas e top cases para motociclos, tem sido fantástico, mas têm de ter uma maior variedade de produtos para as principais marcas de motociclos. Os upgrades em equipamento de malas e top cases é estupendo, excelente trabalho. Parabéns. Your work in perfecting bags and top cases for motorcycles has been fantastic, but you must have a greater variety of products for the main motorcycle brands. The upgrades to luggage and top case equipment are stupendous, great job. Congratulations.
Amazing top case! I love your all products ❤ I will order 💯

Thank you!
Looks fantastic
Very interesting to see this. Impressive!
Great work!!!!
Really like the look of this, I ride an ATV off road and this looks sturdy enough to hold up on our trips out, I'm sure it could be attached to the rack on the back. Would be interested in purchasing one of these when they are available
Thank you for the information video on how the top box is progressing. There is always a lot of hard work in R&D and it’s just not a simple as putting a box on a rack. The locking device seems to work really well. I will be interested in the final material it is going to be made from looking at strong yet light weight. No mention of impact resistance or water tight testing as yet. Send me a sample and I’ll fully test it for you :) Honestly keep up the great work love what you are doing. Built by motor cycle enthusiasts for motor cycling people all over the world.
Perfect results... As usual !
I would like to be able to use my ignition key. The BMW aluminum cases have you purchase a separate lock cylinder kit so you can make it work with your key.
Muy buen trabajo...
I think they look great! I would be the perfect rider to test them 😊😁
Watch the markup on this box. I love the video, but the plate view you showed doesn’t convince me. I am actively seeking my rear rack/box.
What type of feedback did you have from your pillion during testing in regard to the comfort of the backrest? When can we expect pricing and availability to Canada?
I HATE top boxes, but damn, that looks AWESOME!!! Can't wait to get my hands on the small size. The wide one is just too big for adventure riding IMO. Great work Andrew and the LR team...
I think it's looking really good in terms of everything you're doing so far. Some things I would comment on noticing some stuff about my last camping trip using my top box to hold a water container - the hinges on the case I have now became twisted enough to not allow true alignment when closing the lid. I hope your hinges a beefy enough to hold open the lid with weight on it attached. If they aren't then the top lid would get twisted in the same manner. I also like more screws and threaded retainers than rivets that if one wanted to change something out - the rivet would need removal and replacement by a threaded insert and bolt or screw. Do you have a material in mind for the case itself? are you going with black anodized aluminum?

Yes, we are adding two reinforcement bars across the hinge area and making the hinges removable for service. I have the same experience as you last year on a trip so we built into this product. The coating will be powder coated. Thanks
Would be great if you sourced locks that use the same key that could be used with LoneRider panniers and overlander bags
Any updates on when it wil be available?
It looks like a really nice box .
Could the included light be attached to the outside of the box in multiple locations for night use when camping?

It can, it will have a Velcro backing so theoretically it will work. USB-C rechargeable too.
Are we there yet? 😊🎉
Nice vid about the painstaking proces of the development of a new product. To me it’s just another topcase. To be honest I don’t see the reason why I should purchase this product. All the other brands offer the same solution. I would really love to see something that adventurers would really like to have and use. Like for instance: place some foldable legs underneath so you could use the case as a small table. Maybe a steal top that is heat proof so you could use a small burner stove without damaging the case if you spill something ion it. Isolate the case so that food stays fresh longer. I Mean a more practical use that combines features. I do believe in the brand and I’m sure that there are still a lot of unused idea’s. So keep up the good work and good luck with production of it.

Noted! Thanks for the feedback
Will there be an option to use the OEM bike key (BMW R1250GS) on the locking cylinder?
@LONERIDERMoto
11 ай бұрын
Yes, this key will be codable to the BMW R1250GS OEM bike key
Interesting
I'm not a fan of boxes, but this one looks great and very well designed. Big enough, versatile and well thought thru, hence the hinges that stay in the desired position. Regarding the lock, it would be great to serve the BMW community with the possibility to use their BMW key. From the looks at 14:44 min. and onwards in your video, the picture on the right top hand, it looks like you even used a BMW key during prototyping.

Yep, that's a GS key, testing how it works on the new lock barrel ;)
I'd be curious to know how much time it takes for you between start and finish on this product development that you nicely outlined for us. I'm also wondering if the changes made to reduce the inner lining to accommodate the two helmets might be made into an option so that those of us who don't use the top box for helmets might want to keep the full interior padding. Too much...?
@LONERIDERMoto
11 ай бұрын
From the idea, at least two years to make a product. The lining will come as standard, no worries here
If I, as a Swiss, may also say something about it? According to the video description, the case is very interesting and logically structured in theory. What would interest me is how much load of goods is allowed and how the driving behavior changes, e.g. with a GS. In my opinion, the storage space is one thing, but the driving behavior is something different. I generally think it's a pity that Lone Rider does not want to show a presence in Switzerland, as I consider this company to be a top brand.

We are in Switzerland, some of the team live in Swiss ;)
So I have not been following- what are the specs? how does it attached to rack? Volume? Weight? sorry if you answered this already.

Not released yet, will lock down the final details and let you know in an upcoming video.
I want to make a pre-order
Personally I would have been ok with a normal little key like what you use for your pannier motobags. Seems over engineered. At least that way perhaps allow someone to buy a set of panniers and top box that could use the same key, and get a key cut al local shop. The rest looks amazing
What's your projected time line to market?

In the worst possible spot. At least they can attach their Fendi and Coach bags to the molle panels.
Yeah the Molly panels don’t work for me

No drama. It was a pleasure to see it being used :)@@LONERIDERMoto
Would love a top-box like this if it could be made to fit over the passenger seat. I hate top-boxes that hang all the way over the rear of the bike. I don't take pillions!
Kind of disappointment. The market is saturated with Hard top Cases, I was expecting from Lone Rider to develop something like the Moto Bag Panniers, mean, Semi-Rigid, I don't think those Top Case are attractive enough to make me swap the BMW OEM or any other brand top case, which, most likely, are cheaper than Lone Rider...besides, 46L way to big, can pose a danger, the option of attaching extra stuff increase the instability & danger.

The great thing is we can use the attachment points now to build out other products. Like a soft topbox for example.

@@LONERIDERMoto Not Soft, you already got a great product (Which I use for 4-5 years already) Simi-Rigid, don't go backward move forward, & keep volume reasonable up to 40L.
