I like that your givi rack doesnt look like a full face retainer. How do uou feel about it when the topcase is off?

Jiggles · January 11th, 2013, 01:37 AM

Dunno, havent taken it off yet

Bigballsofpaint · January 11th, 2013, 01:00 PM

Nice jigs, ill be getting the givi set with v47 case and backrest for the woman in a few months. Were planning a trip to kansas in may, all ill be going down to the dragon in aug. I wont be getting side cases either, it kills me to make this sport bike look anything like a touring bike, but i must sacrifice somewhere

Sargent makes a heated seat already for the n1k man. They dont make a pillon seat, so ill be getting both corbins for it as well.

Dude, the 47 is gigantic! Like seriously, they dont get taller just fatter so it looks like it belongs on a gold wing. I'd get the 38 if I were you and make do. Maybe add some Nelson Rigg CL-950s if you need the extra storage. They don't extend out very far and have 20L on each side. Also, the V47 is 2x the cost of the 38

Bigballsofpaint · January 11th, 2013, 01:16 PM

i wont leave the case on all the time, just on my long trips, and in that case i want the extra storage. The 55s and the 46 look too bubbly and huge to me, the 47 may be big but it has sharper lines that somewhat go with the bike at least.

Jiggles · January 11th, 2013, 01:47 PM

Oi, see one in person if you can, that is what changed my mind on the subject

Bigballsofpaint · January 11th, 2013, 01:57 PM

They arent readily avail in the US yet, all the ebay listings i see are from canada. They seem to have different 47's. Im looking at the V47

Jiggles · January 11th, 2013, 02:02 PM

Yep thats the one I originally ordered

Bigballsofpaint · January 11th, 2013, 02:26 PM

Ah ok, either way my tail is going to have a big box on the back of it, so i may as well get one that can fit a good amount of stuff. I was looking at the ventura rack too, but i figured my gf would prob lean on it and i know the givi has a little better mounting than just the grab bars. Having the waterproof case helps too, when you coming to this side of the country?

It's dark smoke, when its perfectly clean you can see ok through it while your in the tuck. But when it's just a little dirty it's really hard to see details like is that a cop park in the shade of that tree. For aesthetics I love the dark on my black bike but a light smoke may have been a bit more functional, I have no regrets with my decision

Jiggles · February 16th, 2013, 12:46 AM

Clear get clear!

It doesn't look as dumb as the dark ones
