Sorry if this has been asked before, when I bought my bike I got the Yamaha panniers and top box fitted, haven't had any problems with them and find them pretty much fit for purpose, I've just read that you shouldn't ride with back box and panniers fitted together at the same time https://www.shopyamaha.com/product/details/super-ténéré-top-case?b=Adventure+Touring+Accessories&d=44&f=2017|196 this doesn't make any sense, I've been riding with them on and a pillion without any problems, they even, on the Yamaha web site show it being ridden with all boxes in situ, can anyone shed any light as to why this is a recommendation, how much weight do they really expect you to carry in the back box?
