If you're thinking of getting a bigger top case that holds two helmets, I fully recommend the Givi top cases. I got this one on my Sportster and it's been life changing.
thx,did u ride without the mra added,I'am 5,9 looking to get the air flow over the helment & no buffeting
thk,mike
I would say without the MRA it is not a lot different I am 5'7" and the air around the helmet is clean (but noisy) #1 reason (besides loud pipes) that motorcyclists go deaf so fast. The MRA X-ray is nice because you can tweak the air flow and soften it as well.
4 bungee buddies through bolted with bungee attachment points under case. MRA-Xray fully extended MRA - xray short tinted model to compare with - meh. MRA - Xray on the 2014 Honda Valkyrie blvd screen to compare. MRA X-ray in the lowest position on a bigger fairing.
Underneath the HD OEM quick release tail rack I added a VERY cool feature by using 4 bungee buddies as my method of securing the Pelican style topcase to the rack. If I ever need to bungee something down on top of the rack and or top case it is an easy thing now.

Seeing as you've posted this up for all to see, it's fair to pass comment...None of this belongs on a Harley. It may be suitable for a Suzuki V-Strom but would never make the grade on a BMW adventure type bike. And definitely NOT a Harley!

I get what you're saying, I wouldn't put that on my bike but to each their own.
HD's are beautiful but we all add modifications, some not quite understandable but we all do it.

I can't remember asking for a "grade" what I do remember is sharing an idea to make MY new Sport Glide more functional for my DAILY year round commutes (minus storms). The nice thing about my additions is they all can be detached from the bike ALL of them in less than three minutes.
Bungee Buddies - out of sight but highly functional when you need to secure a smart a+s to the back of your HD. Four point tie down locations on the HD OEM rack Gets pretty hot down south so staying hydrated is important on long rides.
