Hard side cases on a Honda xr150 : too much weight?
I'm in Medellin Colombia right now and just bought a honda xr 150 to ride to Bolivia. It's less bike then I wanted but I was able to get it new within my budget range which I saw as a big advantage because I'm not handy and don't know the local language well so I wanted to avoid repairs.
My plan is to put 30l aluminum side cases on to carry my gear. I really want the ability to lock stuff up without taking off the bike so I can walk away for short periods. I also like the waterproof aspect.
I am wondering if people would generally advise against the weight of hard cases on a bike this small. I honestly do know how I'm going to be able to fit everything without them but if it straight up isnt going to work then I'll forego them.
Interested to hear everyone's thoughts!
