The paperwork from Vans that came with my final kit recommended a maximum of 150 lbs in the baggage area.

But I see Vans' web site now says 100 lbs maximum.

Anyone know when this change happened? Or why?

Mine is 100 lbs. Finished 12/1/11. I would go past aft limit anyway with my aux battery PC680 and main 925L in the back. No idea on when the change occurred.

It's really a non-issue anyway.... unless you're loading steel or lead back there, you'll run out of room before you exceed either weight limit. The baggage area can easily support 200+ pounds...... having spent some time back there myself...(during the build!). it's more of a weight and balance safety concern.
