Shad 37 Top Case/ Honda Rear Carrier

[Gingersdaddy_imp]

Looks nice. The thought of being able to take the case off is a good one, but so far, I haven't taken mine off, and don't see myself doing that until I sell the bike (if that day ever comes).

To be honest, have only taken it off once. I felt it would be nice for over night trips, I could take it in the hotel room like a luggage.

I have the Shad 29 and its working great. I picked up mounting points on the small bars that go across the bike, it looks like you got the larger bars that form the frame by drilling. I'll have another look at my installation.

Replacing the hardware with stainless is a great idea; the heads of the original bolts are starting to show a bit of rust.

My rear carrier has tabs with holes in them, that I used. I was trying not to drill any new holes in the carrier. The Shad cases are pretty nice.

That's one nice thing about the Givi universal plate, you don't need to drill any holes, no matter what. They engineered a very nice, universal solution that doesn't involve messing with the stock carrier in any way and is still rock solid.

The shad base plate has multiple holes with square washers for the bolts, but none of the base plate holes lined up with the rear carrier tab holes. just drilled holes in the plastic shad base plate. I didn't look at the Givi top cases, sound like they fit.
