    Default Top case

    Does anyone have the top case? If so what do you think of it?

    Default Don't....

    But ryde with those that do. Givi make the most commonly seen with our group but there are others. Those that have the Givi are very happy with them. Hope those that do here chime in with better reviews..

    I have a Corbin Smuggler Trunk. It takes the place if the passenger seat. Requires a Corbin rider seat. They also have a larger trunk that goes behind the passenger. Kinda pricy though.

    Default Top case

    I have the can am case and I love it. If fits a full face helmet perfectly. When I first tried to open it after I got it, I thought I would not be able to open it fully and was really irritated. Then I discovered a knob underneath that tilts the bracket the case rests on so it can open fully. Now I like it.

    There is no picture in the accessories catalog about how the top box mounts to the backrest so I don't have a clue on how it mounts. And your comment about lowering the seat doesn't make any sense...the top box is behind the passenger seat isn't it? Would like more information before I buy one.

    For long rides with the wife I run a GIVI 47L Blade Mono Lock case that I mounted to a spare sport rack lid. Works great!

    Default Top case

    The seat does not get lowered. There is a bracket the case is mounted to and is attached to the backrest. Under the bracket there is a lever to allow the case to lean forward enough to open the case without having the lid hit the back of the backrest. That way the case can fit a full face helmet.
