I bought the 58L Givi top case and then made sure the Helinox cot, Helinox chair, Helinox table, and Mountain Hardware tent would all fit in it. They do and there is room to spare.
Assuming 99% on-road? I couldn't imagine that amount of weight up that high....or maybe I'm all wet? I guess I just find keeping the weight as low and balanced as possible (soft panniers) is more confidence inspiring off-road. YMMV.

good morning all.
bought a Kelt down bag rated at 40 degrees Fahrenheit for a trip to Colorado in June . my favorite bag for a long time and still is as far as comfort is a Wiggys bag but it takes up too much room . the KELTY (auto spell correction driving me crazy ) is a quarter the size of my wiggy . the wiggy is going to be put in the truck camping pile I guess. trying to reduce everything to fit in the panniers . even with the wigs I was able to get everything in the boxes but would end up with a bag on the back seat with my clothes , so trying to eliminate even that . learning to be more efficient .
