They are ROAM cases. They have been great. Have not had any moisture or dust problems with them. My only real complaint is the ability to secure them. The latch only accepts a very small not what I would call strong secure padlock. I do not feel really comfortable putting anything of real value in them.

Testing out the static load rating of the roof this past weekend.

There was some squirming encountered when placing the tie downs for the dynamic tests; corrupting any data.

Heading up to Vermont for a weekend of scenic roads on the bikes. My son and I both have Royal Enfield Himalayans.
As a bonus we will hit the British Invasion car show in Stowe on Saturday.
