Shad 37 Top Case/ Honda Rear Carrier

[simplest2remember_imp]

I installed this top case a few weeks ago and wanted to post some pictures for everyone. The Shad 37 will hold one helmet and a few other items. I can get my helmet and light weight coat in it, but my tourmaster coat with armor will not fit.


Here is the base mounted to the Honda rear carrier.


The mounting holes on the rear carrier did not match the holes in the bracket so I squared it up where I wanted it and drilled though the plastic bracket to match the holes in the carrier. the mounting hardware supplied is not stainless so I'm going the replace the bolts later, make sure you use nylon lock nuts.



The view from the rear. The case locks into the bracket pretty good and tight. The case has a open area right above the opening lever that you can carry the top case around by. I was originally going to go with a black milk create, but just could not do it and spent some money on the case. When it is locked, it is locked to the bracket and the lid is locked. Keep it locked even if its empty or you might come out and find it gone.

I like the CB1100 without anything on it, but need to be able to lock some things up and the Shad Top Case works great for me.
My first time posting pictures, hope they are viewable.

Nice job. Out of interest, how is your Shad case holding up? All still robust and functional? In Hanoi the choices are somewhat limited, though I may be able to get me hands on one of these: http://www.endurance-store.jp/item/4732.html
