Asahi Panniers + Givi SR1118
#1

First post, hello everyone just a update from a post I saw like 1 or 2 years ago so not sure if it is still relevant or if anyone already did this, couldn't find a post that did. First time seeing these forums was when I was looking for saddle bags and got pointed out to a thread started by tomas (http://cb1100forum.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=6001), which btw thank you very much tomas went with the accessories because I thought the end result pics on your post were the $h!7. Pretty much got the same setup as far as windscreen and panniers, no regrets til recently at 12k miles feeling like I needed more trunk space on my daily commute. So to the point, someone asked if theres any way to get a rear rack connected with the Asahi Panniers since the description on them states can't use with rear rack, assumed it only meant the Honda OEM, with an extra pair of 65mm m8x1.25 screws, same length and size as the rear set of screws that come with the panniers, to replace the front set the Givi SR1118 for the 2013-2014 cb's fit perfectly & handles my full 205lb bearing weight at the end of the rack, wouldn't test that on the panniers though. the rack adds like an extra 1/5th of an inch distance for the panniers on both sides, which I felt was needed but at the same time didn't feel or look like its any wider. Just if anyone was interested, and a long hello Tongue. Sorry about the lighting, only time I get to work on it is past 9pm. Just need to get a top case to match now Smile

just my luck, few days after I get it installed I get sandwiched in between a pickup truck from my right that pushes and grinds me along an suv on the left. won't have this setup for a while and gonna be rockin a givi case lookin like a pizza delivery guy for a while. But gotta say, if anyones interested in saddle bags that will save your legs &/or your life, these panniers will do it. another month til hopefully my insurance covers it, 100% getting another set as I don't think I'd be standing today if they weren't there.

That stinks, but good that they were able to protect you a bit.

In California we can lane split but it isn't always the safest thing to do. It's a big part of what makes bikes so attractive to me here though. Save a huge amount of time under the right conditions.
