Best place to get a replacement that's not $500+ ?

Well the escapade continues. The Seller on Ali Express has reneged on the return very last minute. I then selected the formal return process, and they are only giving me 24 hours to purt together a VIDEO of how the parts do not fit. I honestly don't have the time to do this as my days are just...

Anyone know what the paint code of for the 2024 in white? I thought it was Alpine White, but i'm seeing too many conflicting codes and colors in my search, so I wanted to poll the audience. I can't connect with the fabricator, but I do know how to rattle-can paint very well; Looking at brands...

Sorry I've been so busy lately. I'm going to put the fabricator on hold for now as I've been so taxed on time; I contacted the vendor and asked for another set and finally they agreed to send me another set and am waiting on them. I explained to them (the best the translator could do) that the...

@wspollack Sent in my request for the C400GT and my 310GS ;)

@mgg @wspollack Are we still writing in for this? Or is it now on their radar?

@wspollack Sorry I've been out of pocket. BMW setup the perfect storm in rebates and discounts for me and I pulled the trigger on this...

I couldn't get mine to fit under the seat due to the welds being uneven. I have contacted the seller asking to exchange these, but they're not budging. In the video, it appears as the fitment is good. I have been so busy that I haven't had time to get mine fixed by the fabricator. I'm glad for...

Sorry for the lack of update; After attempting to install this bracket several times (for mock-up purposes), I've come to the conclusion that this needs a redesign all-together. I've been meeting with the fabricator and he's been proactive to help and believes we can pull it off. So keep hope...

Surprisingly, the SH23's just arrived a few minutes ago... I might break down and have my neighbors help me grind these brackets until they fit.

:)

Update - My OE BMW topcase seat-rack arrived, so I was able to put together a true fitment. BLUF: The AliExpress bracket does not fit correctly. Can I force it to fit? Yes, with damage to the paneling in different places on both sides. :cautious: The fabrication shop said they can make it fit...

Just got off the phone with a local shop and they're going to fix the bracket, R&D a little more for fitment, scan it so there's a CAD/CNC file, strip and powdercoat all of it, and send me packing... Should have something finished this week.... Just in time for the side cases to arrive.

I think perhaps the quickest way forward might be to take what I have to a local CNC shop, let them perform a surface scan of the mounting area, scan the ugly bracket, and then figure out the way forward.

okay so after closer inspection, we have a showstopper - The brackets that are to be mounted underneath the main seat / topcase / handle, and not going to fit due to their craftsmanship. the rest of the pieces are perfectly symmetrical and I don't foresee a problem. However these main support...

In case anyone is interested I saw this is gaffed at the possibilities.. It would be placed in the secondary (forward) helmet position underneath the seat...

Reviving this thread....... Looking for these shocks today and the price is closer to 1K. Does it exist at a lower price point?

Ok unpacked - First impressions. Box damaged a bit - not a big deal. sufficiently wrapped in cellophane. would have been better to have them cast in expanding packing foam; Their method got the job done. Steel is thick and will definitely hold side cases with no bending issues. Isn't powder...

Don't jinx it. Anyway - Thoughts on this? least expensive price I could find with shipping. I would have to purchase some of my own electrical components to get the lights working since Givi is approximately 6mo over on their projection for releasing the electrics kit for it.

Yes, of course - I'm going to take it slow, as I don't know what the fitment is going to look like, and I'll likely need a few fashioned pieces for fit and finish. I'm also going to paint the Shad sh23's and the Givi V58, and wire them both for led / marker / turn signals. Just ordered the...
