    I believe so, it came with the bike when i bought it mate. Having said that im pretty sure the previous owner fitted the locks to the bags so may of well riveted the Triumph logos on too. It straps to the backrest with velcro straps but he also fitted a metal brace bar on the underside to bolt it to the rack (it sandwiches the rack in between the metal brace bar & the base of the bag).

    You can always bling 'em up with a couple of Triumph badges.

    A few years back I'd never have contemplated bags or a box, but after going over to the continent with my brother who had a full Givi kit, top box & panniers, I began to see the light, while I was wrestling with straps & bungees, he'd have slung his lid in the box unclipped the panniers, like a couple of small suitcases & be halfway up to the hotel room. Also his kit never got wet when we were caught in the rain, headin out for a beer wearing damp shirt & jeans - not a good look!

    Also, as I've got older I seem to feel the need to carry around more & more clobber-just in case. :wink:
