Old GIVI mount and bags on 2014 CB

[rboe]

A buddy picked up a Nighthawk with the GIVI system on it and didn't want it so he sold it to me. Finally got around to adapting to the CB with the help of a mutual friend - with a welder.


I do have some clearance problems with the muffler, "may" need to look at a smaller aftermarket unit to keep the saddlebag from melting. I have a heat shield but fear it may not be good enough.

I test fitted my 56l GIVI top case and it clears much better. No ribs to act as feet.

That thing will be good for Chuckk. It has a built in magnification lens

And the bags do look good Rboe!

I noticed the thread title was fixed to read "... bags on 2014 CB".

Thanks for the fix. I can type close to 100 words a minute - if you assume that needed corrections are ignored.

Turns out GIVI still makes those bags; Revzilla has them for $175.00 each.

I attached a heat shield but it touches - hard - on the bottom of the bag, need to bend/tweak the mounts a bit or I'll wear a hole in the bottom of the bag. Shoulda taped a hunk of wood to the exhaust as a spacer during the set up to insure proper distance. sigh.

Have a trip to Furnace Creek in Death Valley planned in a couple weeks so this is prep leading up to that trip.
