In brief. On the Honda CRF 1100 L Africa Twin Adventure Sports from 2020 onward, the Wanderer semi-rigid cases are mounted on LOBOO JP322B side frames in a 40 + 30 liter configuration. The original Honda frames are not compatible: the Wanderer cases attach only to frames with 18 mm tubing and the LOBOO drilling pattern.
The case set does not include the frames, which must be purchased separately.
Standard Africa Twin. The JP322B frames are for the Adventure Sports version. No LOBOO side frames are available in the catalog for the standard CRF 1100 L Africa Twin; if you have this version, contact us before ordering.
What is needed for the Africa Twin Adventure Sports
| Component | Code | Specification sheet |
|---|---|---|
| Wanderer 40 + 30 L semi-rigid cases, with two 20 L dry bags | BCB4030TBK | Wanderer |
| LOBOO side frames for the CRF 1100 L Africa Twin Adventure Sports from 2020 onward, including hardware and tool | JP322B | JP322B frames |
Why 40 + 30 and the P35 template
The JP322B frames are asymmetrical: the left side is sized for a 35-liter PIKE TRACKER case, while the right side, on the exhaust side, is sized for a 30-liter case. With the Wanderer cases, this asymmetry becomes a 40 + 30 configuration: the narrower case goes on the right.
The Wanderer mounting plate is factory-drilled for PIKE TRACKER P45 frames. For the P35 series, the mounting points must be moved to the template with a 318 × 204 mm hole spacing, already provided on the plate: this only needs to be done once.
Installation at a glance
- Install the JP322B frames according to their manual.
- On the case, move the plate mounting points to the PIKE TRACKER P35 template and tighten the screws to 8 N·m using the included hex key.
- Close the roll-top by rolling it twice, then secure the top buckle.
- Attach the case to the frame and close the side lock.
All steps, including the illustrated drilling templates, are provided in the installation guide for the semi-rigid motorcycle cases.

Soft-sided or aluminum cases for the Africa Twin
The PIKE TRACKER 35 + 30-liter aluminum cases can also be mounted on the same JP322B frames: you can find them in the PIKE TRACKER kit for the Africa Twin Adventure Sports, with the frames included. Aluminum offers better protection against impacts and theft; the Wanderer cases weigh less, detach by hand like a bag, and include the dry bags.
Frequently asked questions
Can the Wanderer cases be mounted on the original Honda frames?
No. The Wanderer cases attach only to side frames with 18 mm tubing and the LOBOO mounting-hole pattern. The Africa Twin Adventure Sports requires the LOBOO JP322B frames.
Will they fit the standard Africa Twin?
The JP322B frames are for the CRF 1100 L Africa Twin Adventure Sports from 2020 onward. There are no LOBOO side frames in the catalog for the standard version: write to us before ordering.
Does the Africa Twin use the 40 + 30 or the 40 + 40?
The 40 + 30. The JP322B frames are asymmetrical: the 30-liter case goes on the right side, the exhaust side.
Are the frames included in the case set?
No, the Wanderer set includes two cases and two 20 L dry bags. The JP322B frames are purchased separately.
Are they waterproof?
