I am with my z650 and top boxes and side boxes 98% of the time on the road since they are helpful at times you don't expect.

So far not much of a problem unless i need a bigger space (along kapchai) for parking.

Scratched an old volvo once since he ignored me and close my 'way'. Feel bad about it but you deserve it since there is a lot more space on the other side of the road.

Ignorance is a bliss, but not for that volvo driver. Sorry bro!
