Default Top Boxes

Saw a guy this morning, with a top box on a Fireblade.
Is it just me or is that just plain wrong ?

I see loads of sports bikes with top boxes around here on the way out of work mainly, I dont mind it cause it means that guy is using that sports bike as a commuting bike and not afraid to take it out in all conditions instead of wrapping up in the garage for 8 months of the year.

I saw one in London yesterday and it still looked cool although it had a topbox(the fat tyre balanced the look) all you "it's blasphemy" posers

Oh - and I also saw a Hayabusa courier bike with one of those ultra cheap looking top boxes strapped to the passenger's seat.

My mate Cardo has a top box on his Viffer. I must say, I am jealous when he just casually chucks his lid in it.
