My husband I both have the Jesse boxes and so far so good. We have read all the posts from people who either love them or hate them but we both needed luggage for a trip that is coming up fairly soon. We are huge fans of Touratech but the price difference (x2) and the fact that their 2009 brackets make the bikes really wide made us give Jesses a try. My husband did have to do some modifications since the brackets are designed for the round stock exhaust and not the oval aftermarket. It does not suck having a master fabricator in the house!

This guy did a lot of research about pannier width:
