The SW-Motech side racks and cases arrived today; unfortunately, one mounting bracket is missing, but I’ve already ordered a replacement.
Installation went smoothly and took a good hour.
They are smaller (17.6 L) than the ones on my DLX, but they’ll be perfectly adequate for a very long trip, especially since I also have a Givi top case.
They stick out a bit; I might modify them over the winter to bring them closer together.

I also adjusted the rear/monoshock to make it softer
