A few signs of the Zodiac alligned, so now we can take the kitchen sink on a trip too.

Sign 1
the lid lock of my old (free) top box failed.

2
I cannot fit my luggage rack on which the topbox mounts in parralel with the 6th gen cases.

3
2nd hand GIVI rack for the 4th gen for sale.

4
GIVI topbox for sale.


As with the 6th gen cases, I had to be a bit creative with the rack, since it was not designed with a high mount muffler in mind....

You must have a really small kitchen sink. Also, is it not mounted in a counter more or less permanently? 

I mean, I know you do things differently over there. :goofy:  

You should be able to take sufficient personal property at least. :beer:

Looks like a nice set up to me. I love my top box. I put everything I need for a day trip in there and ride with a minimal tank bag. Since you used the "we" in there, is there a possibility to stick on a back rest to make it comfortable for one of "you"? Or was it the royal "we"??

Happy riding. Will be looking for the trip report.

Nice shot. I see in the last pic the rear seat cover is off.

Probably more comfortable that way.

Enjoy the trip! :beer:
