top boxes

[pross]

This is one of Phils / hero blobs plates with the monokey lugs on I think that was an extra £10 if I remember correctly

[STX1300man]

oes anyone make anything like this for the standard Monolock box?

It seems a shame (crazy!) to buy one of these and then bolt the plastic adapter plate on top of it.

My Shad top case came with a metal mounting plate.  I removed the POS plastic rack and mounted the metal plate in it's stead.

This is the top box that came with my bike, I believe it's a Givi 39 litre.

I have a Shoei Neotec helmet and the wife has a Caberg. They won't both fit in which is a bit disappointing.

There is a quick release plate mounted on the original rack

You will problably find that is the monolock plate the kawasaki seem to prefer .

Thanks Raven
The 39 litre size is what I wanted to see on the bike. this will be plenty big enough for me as the boss never comes out on the bike

Just been on the Kawasaki web site and yours is the 47 litre according to their information.

[O.C.]

the Kawasaki cases are Kappa which are made by Givi, and very good they are too.

Always thought the Monolock stuff was more scooter orientated than motorbike, and monokey was bike orientated. Certainly the Monolock kawasaki top box and plastic Monolock plate that came with my bike seemed far less sturdy than the hero blobs plate and the Givi Monokey box now installed.

Yes just had a look and it is the 47 litre box with this base plate

Silly question,

Are you interested in a straight swap or something - My 52l for your briefcase? 

Just a thought!

Heroblobs is phils uk supplier Same kit it works out cheaper then when he first did them selling one at a time in the uk with delivery/ import duty he delivers in bulk to heroblobs.

I have the Shad SH48 with a carbon look top and backrest and comes with a metal base plate.  On the GTR it doesn't look out of place and holds a heap load of gear.
