I have a KTM 1190R, shot out to check if that box would fit my pannier rack, I don't think it will. I currently carry the KTM toolkit plus a tubeless tire repair kit with CO2 bottles. When I put the bags on I carry an enduro toolkit and compressor as well.
I took the factory tool kit and replaced it with the same tools but made by Craftsman, Snap on and Knipex. Add some odd & end tools that I've found handy over the years, scissors, Nite-Itze, etc. I carry them in the tray under the seat of my Beemer R1150R. I made up my own First Aid kit as well, with what I think I'll need, not what some manufacturers think I need. I carry it in a rear case along with my Dynaplug air pump, flashlight and all.
I truly enjoy your videos, they’re instructive and also funny, thanks a lot. I have the Touratech one installed on my R1250GSA; a few weeks ago I went off road and during the ride the swigarm went all the way up (they call it suspension bottoming), and the toolbox broke the rear fender (near the bolts that hold it), and it was a mess because the bolts broke and it was a pain in the .... to remove the bolts. My bike is NOT the lower kit version, so is important to tell all the lower kit version owners that this box (the Touratech, and the one you are showing) is incompatible, it will hit the swing arm and damage badly. Thanks for your videos 👍👍👍👍 Ride safe Brother
It makes sense now that you mention it. This is the same reason why the exhaust is on the opposite side of the swing arm. It might not matter to those that don’t ride off-road but those of us that do should consider this. Thanks
I bought this off Amazon. Solid black. Those clamps are garbage. I went to the hardware store and bought 4 of the 3/4” regular clamps. The bracket you screwed into the forward side comes with another one incase you mount it on the right side, but it tabs inward for a different bike. But if you flip it up and screw both on the forward side, you can add another clamp. I have two clamps on the front and back. Just use the holes that are there on the back with the 3/4” clamps and it is solid now.
I bought a cheap tool box from china, I just keep a puncture repair kit, air canisters and cable ties tape etc, all tools kept in the top box. great videos.
Great tool box. I got it today. In 15 minutes you make it waterproof. Take the screws that hold all the metal case around. Split the plastic case in a half. Remove the light silicone from the edges and apply your preffered glue or silicone . Put plastic box together, let it dry, install metal covers with screws and it will be perfect. Thank you for your tips for the instalation, greatly appreciated
You have to take the fender off (that weird part in the instructions) because when off-road, you may use all the travel in your suspension and the fender will interfere with the box. Something might break.
Motion pro bead breaker tire irons (for extreme tire failures), slime compressor, zip ties, Steel zip ties, tool roll, plug kit. That pretty much fills it up. Wish I could fit a spare 19" tube in also but no-go. Great video. Thanks!
I bought the same tool box through AliExpress and going to return it, because it’s made of two separate pieces on glue and it started spreading 😂. Touretech will be my next one
Carry the following: Custom selected tool kit to fit all GSA fasteners, nuts, bolts, Hex screws etc including tyre levers, 2part steel (pratley putty) Leatherman multitool, Q-Bond, set of light duty garage gloves, selection of zipper ties, and a small light duty tool mat/tarp. '17 model White GSA Full Spec.
I wish I had watched your video before I bought mine. I share the same opinion, very worth product. But, as we don´t know about the steel in the bolts and nuts, I just did bought brand new stainlees bolts nuts and capped nuts. So far as tight and safe as any top level brand toolbox.
Great find. Why not submerge the box in water before mounting it on the bike to find out if it is waterproof? Actually the suggestion for removing the rear mudguard for off-road use is a pretty valid one. The rear mudguard does very little in terms of mud/water spray but BMW had to put it there on all of the for compliance purposes. The real reason for removing it for off-road use is to prevent it from breaking (which they are prone to do) when the rear wheel hops up and down. You will notice a lot of GS/GSA bikes that do serious off-road riding are missing that mudguard because they broke for this very reason YMMV
Mine fell off during a 5 day off road tour because i forgot to tighten it properly and trust me, there was a huge line of mud going up my licence plate and my top box. They don't claim the box is waterproof (neither is Touratech) since submerging it has to do with water pressure as well. But splash proof which should be similar to riding in the rain is fine. Thanks for the good comment though.
A few years ago I had a great ride in Cape Town SA and got a chance to visit a shop over there that I had previously ordered from “Wild at Heart” you may have heard of them. Anyway, while there they presented me with a great solution for reinforcing the mudguard. It’s a molded metal bracket that fits over the top of the attachment points and it has done great job ever since. Up until then I had broken 2 mudguards but to be fair I am a pretty aggressive off-road rider with my GSA.
Thanks a lot, it was a very helpful video for me to instal original Touratech toolbox! I bought it used, so it was cheap enough. Very positive and easy going video - you’re talented! 😉✌️
Long Way Home - Excellent video! As it turns out, I don't have the GSA model with the more durable rigging for my side and top cases. I have a GS and use the cutouts built into the motorcycle for my top & side cases. Sadly, I don't think your tool box discovery will work for me. But, it's good to know about; and whenever the time comes for me to trade my GS for a GSA (or to change out my top/side cases for the ones that use those case frames), I'll be looking at this toolbox. I keep rain gear in my right side case. I keep 4 liters of bottled water, jumper cables, small metric tool kit, tire pressure gauge, and a tire repair kit in my left side case, and keep my top case empty for my helmet whenever I decide to pull over and leave my moto alone. I also have a tank bag with is for my wallet, cell phone, and other accessories I may need quick access to. I can easily see the value of the toolbox you demonstrated. Great video, thanks! PS - I couldn't find the "small" thumbs up as you described, so I went ahead and pressed the Big Thumbs Up. ;)
Have you been happy with the tool box after three years? Thanks for all the videos you make. Looks like you have gotten skinney since you made this video three years ago. Looking Good (from a straight guy)
I don't think this is a low-cost box. I may save a couple hundred bucks from the more expensive model, but then I have to spend $20K plus to get the BMW GS bike to put it on...
Kayakers (Boaters) use a marine grade silicone sealant if no rubber washer to seal fasteners, so do motorcyclists. There are also special stainless screws with fitted neoprene o-ring that SCUBA divers use for backplates.
Nice video.... but frankly I was surprised that you looked at a piece of paper that came with it telling you to remove your fender in off-road and you just shrugged your shoulders without warning people why that says that. As some have already mentioned, if your rear suspension compresses enough whether you hit a nasty pothole or riding off-road (and riding 2up off road it will do that fairly often) - this toolbox design -and all the others that look like it - will shear off your rear fender arm. This can also turn into a dangerous safety issue if the arm rotates into the spokes and lock up your rear wheel - as well as damage a few spokes. This is no reason for anyone shrugging their shoulders and putting aside a clear instruction without investigating it and warning viewers about this safety issue. Otherwise, I enjoyed your video. Keep them coming. Having said that, finding a proper on-board safe lockable waterproof toolbox for the 1200GS LC has been mission impossible for me. I've failed to find anything. I would like to throw this challenge on your shoulders. Can you find one for us and post something about it.... PLZ?
Maybe the toolbox can hit the rear mudguard if you are using all the rear suspension offroad and that's why you are reccomended to take the mudgauard off when going offroad?
Who needs a mud guard when you've got that gigantic number plate back there! j/k Thanks for the video! I'm gonna go install my Touratech knock-off now :)
Chain lube and tools. I made 2 tubes for my rain coat to hold in the same place in my little trail Brazilian Yamaha 250cc Ténéré but I need another box to carry chain lube and tools. Maybe I will make another tube.
You made me count 6 times but you have 10 screws on the table, 9 washers and 8 nuts 🥜. Ok so you said the acorn nuts go on the left and nylon nuts on the right but then you said don’t put the acorn on the tightening side (left) because they bottom out before becoming tight so that means acorns on the right and nylons on the left 🤔. But thanks for the video.
just use gasket sealer on all the parts and around all the screws. nothing is going to be perfect. but this will go a very long ways. but how many tubes fit in it and any tire tools with said tubes?
I’ve got Givi racks , from center upright poles it’s 13” on tourtec and from center upright poles on Givi is also 13” so I’m going to order them for my Givi and let you know how this worked out.
Will it fit when riding with BMW - MOSKO soft-bags? I tried a wunderlich toolbox and unfortunately didn't fit because of the soft-bags brackets that then need the toolbox to shift.1,5cm inwards (still plenty of room to the back tire so would of theoretically been possible but the bracket fit system did not accommodate)....
Looks great! Would you be able to provide the center to center distance where the brackets clamp the luggage rack? Or the height and width of the GS luggage rack.. I am trying to mount this on a vstrom with swmotech bags. Thanks!
That is a big box to keep BMW roadside assistance card......ha, ha! Great vid's as usual. By the way, F11 sucks! It is the Tourtec of the waxes.....pure overpriced junk!
Does anyone know if this could be mounted on a ktm 1090 adventure? KTM 1090 Adventure has a similar side panier as the 1200GS and wanted to know if anyone has tried
I had looked at the Touratech box several times but like virtually everything they make it’s overpriced. I bought a Nexx helmet for a fraction of the price of the Touratech helmet(both manufactured in the same factory). So I ordered this knockoff toolbox, more so due to wanting a barrier between my left pannier and the exhaust. Plan on having my dog ride in there and the added storage could hold treats, food, leash etc lol
Let me tell you something about the Touratech box. I bought it last year from their store in Germany for 149,9€. That is somewhat cheaper that the price in the US. I wouldn't have paid that much not even if it was made of gold. The difference to what you have is my pannier mounting system. I have Touratech Zega Pro 2 panniers and for this you need another type of holder. On the back you have a bent sheet metal that fits between the left pannier holder and the bar that connects it to the right one. As I put it together I noticed that there wasn't enough space for the lid. With the lid out, I could mount it, but I could not put it back on. If I wasn't an engineer, I would have send everything back and would have received a working replacement or my money back. But instead I took the pliers and bent it to a shape that allowed it to work. I was pretty disappointed with Touratech after this but I put it on the fact that they wore going through an insolvency. Anyway. I had some issues that forced me to buy new pannier racks (the same) and I also need a new sheet metal part to fit the toolbox. I went to Touratech again and they said they will send me one. I hope free of charge as usual. I an curious how it will work this time. In conclusion, if you live in Europe and what Touratech stuff, look for them somewhere closer to home, like Germany of Austria. They might be a lot cheaper. Secondly, made in Germany does not always means that it is perfect.
Not really. It's only about a month old and peeling already. But I don't think it's compulsory since the cops only ask for the registration paper and it's updated there as well.
Long Way Home easy, I have the also hideous and impractical original panier’s on my Explorer. To protect those I’ve even used my wife’s foot as a crash protection by my latest mishap in Morroco 🙈 Although I am thinking about soft luggage for the future, luckily Givi or even SW-motech are offering a detachable scaffolding now, i think i can tolerate those.. I only use panier’s on vacation 2up so i prefer the clean look. Great channel, greetings 🤟 David 🇨🇿
What the hell is in your water? Intact rubber gloves worn to check for leaks. Then the next shot there are holes in them and even fingers sticking out. That's some serious water. JK. Great review. 👍 Oh wait, there's a button to click for thumbs up. I don't think things through all the time.
Has to be the worst instruction video I’ve seen. You don’t see where the brackets are mounted, there are two lengths of bolts. Tip: mount the bracket then show it mounted. Which way up is the box?
Good design , R&D plus advertising isnt cheap. Raw material choice is probably of a higher quality also. The fakes dont have any of those costs yet ride off the back of Touratech.
3:17 This toolbox is not recommended for low suspension model, and the rear fender will limit the suspension travel with the box in place while offroading.

Fully agreed, there is no reason to pay 220+$ for the same product and same quality.
Bought mine. Thanks!
Do you know if these will fit if I have the Vario panniers??
On off road when the rear suspension moves up high the fender will hit this box.
just use gasket sealer on all the parts and around all the screws.
nothing is going to be perfect. but this will go a very long ways.
but how many tubes fit in it and any tire tools with said tubes?
Fender needs to come off for off road riding as when off road riding if under severe rear suspension compression the toolbox will hit the fender

What about the 1250 GS that doesn't have the pannier rack. Are there separate mounts
😂 Great review and install.

Sorry, but actually you're promoting theft of the intellectual property from Touratech, you're saying that openly and without any doubts. Think twice.

Great channel, greetings 🤟 David 🇨🇿
What the hell is in your water? Intact rubber gloves worn to check for leaks. Then the next shot there are holes in them and even fingers sticking out. That's some serious water. JK. Great review. 👍 Oh wait, there's a button to click for thumbs up. I don't think things through all the time.
:))) Romania is pretty close to Chernobyl......
Has to be the worst instruction video I’ve seen. You don’t see where the brackets are mounted, there are two lengths of bolts. Tip: mount the bracket then show it mounted. Which way up is the box?
Muy limitado. Si los maleteros son GiVi. No funcionan
Becuase the femser is going to shoot rocks into the plastic toolbox and destroy it.
Touratech prices are stupid. Im amazed people but their stuff.
Good design , R&D plus advertising isnt cheap. Raw material choice is probably of a higher quality also. The fakes dont have any of those costs yet ride off the back of Touratech.
You got neighbour produce much better box. Just behind your border.
Calin, does it interfere with the pannier at all?
Nope, tested it and no issue whatsoever.
@@LongWayHome Excellent!
I take a camel pack with basic tools for the bike I’m riding
Have you heard about the new super tenere 1000?
Just a fan render at the moment.

@@LongWayHome I c, I would still buy T7, it's lighter hahaha

BMW means brake my wallet HD hundred dollars , all bike always cost to play
Bumot?
but Ktm 1290 R and u get a decent toolbox with purchase plus u have a lot of money leftover😁😁
3:17 This toolbox is not recommended for low suspension model, and the rear fender will limit the suspension travel with the box in place while offroading.
Bernard Lim I have one on my Low GSA no issues at all.
Wunderlich has a box that can use the BMW key that came with your bike. Also very expensive £169.00
Part No: WUN-41601-100
