Title: 47 L top box
Post by: tapps on August 21, 2012, 06:18:55 PM
well i've fitted my top box,not realy happy that the rack on the gtr is plastic aswell as the box base plate,it does wobble about a bit,i suppose it's been tried & tested & will not come adrift.is there an alternative metal rack out there to replace the plastic one.i like the idea that it's quick release.

These are aluminium and take the Kawasaki [Givi monolock] top box and may be a bit sturdier

I bought one of these, and use my old Givi Monokey topbox, it feels much more secure

Wise choice.  :mfr_lol: They are excellent quality but you need to modify the box ever so slightly.
