I had a Givi case on my Vespa 300GT some years ago and I remember it being a very well built case. If I remember correctly, I could do everything with one hand with my Givi. Open it, take it off the bike if it wasn't locked, put it back on the bike, it just clicked in. I think it was a mono key...

After looking at everything I decided to add the brake light kit that I got with the SH 58x. So I mounted the case back to accomidate that farkle. I took a few pictures. In the first picture you can see the brake light at the edge of the mounting plate and where I drilled the wholes to...

I did not remove the tub to exchange the passenger hand rails with the BMW OEM hand rails/top box mount. Took off the seat strut, and the 5 screws that hold the tub down. 2 plastic in front and 3 regular screws 2 in the back and 1 on the side opposite the strut. With these out you can raise the...

I decided to just mount everything the way it is for now. I really thought the black would look good on my white scooter but just don't want to mess with it right now. I dry fit the Shad mount to the BMW mount which just came in today. It all looks like it will work but it is a little close to...

Did you paint your OEM BMW hand rail,top box mount or do they come in black as well as silver?

I have used the paint from Scratches Happen on 3 different cars. One spray the other 2 were brush touch ups but they all matched perfectly as well as I could tell. They will supply a white card to put a dab of paint on to match to the bike when it drys. So you can test it first.

I like your pricing Bill. They even picked your bike up and dropped it off in NY and charged you less.

I saw this post and asked what the first service would cost at my dealership. They punched it in and said $351.00 which includes an oil and filter change. That does not sound to bad here in Milwaukee. I plan to do most oil changes myself. I just purchased my 2023 C400GT, the dealer had 3 in...

I have little patience. My OEM top case mount, shipped from Germany, has been sitting in US Customs in Chicago 60 miles from my house since Dec 1st, (10 days) and hasn't budged. It is what it is. I did call the post office today just to verify that there was nothing I could do to get this thing...

Have you installed the case differently? The box sure looks closer to the back of the seat (almost touching the seat) in the above photo. The Box looked like it was at least an inch or 1nch and a half away from the back of the seat in previous pictures. Or is this due to the angle of the photograph?

I get exactly what you mean and that is probably as close as we can get to duplicating the factory orientation. I had the 3 pictures pulled up on different screens and went back and forth between them and feel that Cervidae's installation is close. When I blew up the 2nd picture in your series...

It appears that the Scooteria instalation is maybe a little stronger with his drilled holes closer to the front of the BMW mount. ( better spacing ) it is also closer to the seat. That installation actually looks a little nicer to me, however it looks like the back pads on the Scooteria...

Got my new mounting system installed today. This is a much better position for both looks and use. Thanks again for the tip. mgg

If I do anything different I will report back. I will not likely use the stainless steal with hook set up that you included but the insallation should be the same if I have the same BMW mount that you do. It does appear that the mounts may be slightly different from 2021 to 2022. Not suer but I...

Very nice job! Glad I saw this as I should be getting my BMW mount this Friday and already have the Shad sh58x. With your instructions I should be good to go. Thanks for posting.

I did not know this. But I got everything I need, and it works so well that I prabably will not switch. If starting from scratch I might just go this route. I get Basecamp maps because I have a Garmin GPS. My maps are updated 2 or 3 times a year and I can load the new maps to Basecamp with my...

Regarding the back brake lever. Mine was extreamly tight when I took my test ride and the front brake lever felt very good. I asked about it and the sales person said he kinda went over to the bike and started pulling it hard. He said he did this many times. I have to say it is still tighter...

Thanks! I just measured mine, it was 22mm so that is what I ordered. Yours looks awesome and is probably as good as we are going to get with this particular mount. I did see that rubber one you referred to it is actually bulkier and not as nice.

I agree that the wires are not pretty. I did wire tie them up a little since this picture but plan to shorten them. And the cover is a great idea and easy to do. Just a little of that protective film right in that area on the screen would do it. Originally I used the SAE to make the GPS...

I understand that BMW uses Garmin for their navigation and while I really like google maps and that is what I use in my car it does not give me the same capability as my Garmin XT. I have many routes, of motorcycle rides, that I ride. I can map them in Garmin Basecamp and download to my GPS...
