RachelFeeny Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 Hi All,Had new scooter this week and I just want to check regarding storage boxes. Is it safe to leave them on the bike over night? The bike has a cover on it overnight but I just want to check if I should be bringing it in every night? Especially with the weather getting colder?Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRH Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 Always used to leave my top box, Givi, on overnight, not always with a cover on I must admit. Never left any valuable stuff in it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonio Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 Should be fine. I had one on my old moped and on my last bike and never took them off, summer or winter. Just lock it up when you're away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fizzy Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 Had new scooter this week and I just want to check regarding storage boxes. Is it safe to leave them on the bike over night? Suppose it all depends on where you live, and if you plan on leaving anything valuable in itI always take mine off when parking it up overnight, but then that's more down to the fact the cover won't fit with it on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoppetM Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Always left mine on my scooter and had a cover over it at night. During the day it was parked in London, no one ever touched it. To be honest they would have been more likely to take the whole scooter!Just don't leave anything in the box or under the seat that you can't afford to replace again i.e. Helmets etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RachelFeeny Posted October 12, 2016 Author Share Posted October 12, 2016 Only leave documents and waterproof suit under the seat over night as the lock and cover are on the bike lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would not leave any doc relating to the bike stored under the seat over night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Throttled Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 Most top boxes would need to broken to get them open, so I have always left mine on overnight, under a cover, no issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
