I have a perfectly good set of Givi E21 hard bags. These would be a nice size bag for the CB1100. The problem is, I've been unable to find a set of bag mounts for the CB1100 that would work with these bags. Granted, it appears these bags are no longer in the current Givi product line, but seeing as how they were sold for years, there must be a bunch of used E21s out there.
In the meantime, I've purchased (but haven't installed) a set of Hepco Becker mounts and 30 liter Jr bags, but I'd like to use the E21s instead. These look (to me) visually too large for a trim bike like the CB.
Any suggestions short of making a custom set of mounts?

I don't know if this
http://www.twistedthrottle.com/sw-motech...-sidecases will work with the Givi E21 cases but they do work with other Givi cases. You will need to add the SW-MOTECH attachments for Givi cases to the loops, the loops are drilled for several types of attachments. My guess is that they will work but perhaps some part of the loops may show past the forward/rearward parts of the E21 cases since those cases have their lower mount points quite close to the edges of the case.
Here is how I installed them along with a Honda factory rack on a 2013 CB100 -

Thanks, Redbird ...... I think these would probably work, and I think you're correct about the lower portion of the mounts sticking out past the E21 cases, due to the profile of the cases. The SW Motech adaptors appear to be the only game in town for the E21s. I may just go ahead with the Hepco Beckers, or sell them and find a lighter set of cases and mounts.
