• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Here are black caps for the nuts. Made them from 5/8 rubber chair leg tips. Cleans up the ends a little as you can see by comparing to above photo. PS for Brian, as you can see in this one, the zip ties are cut. Or maybe I just refocused the flash so you can't see them. :D

You are the man! Improvise, adapt and overcome! :clap:

Here is s closer look at turn signals with Givi brackets. They are black so they will go on silver, yellow or red. A quick coat of paint would make them match, but for now, I'm leaving them. If you look closely, you can see small silver spacers that fit into the fender indents so that the brackets don't rub on the fender. If you have good eyes, you might be able to see the black sheathing running up the brackets into the tail for the wiring. For anyone who wondered as we did, The V35 cases do hold our M and L HJC full face helmets. You wouldn't think that M and L would be much different on outside dimension, but the M slides right in, but you have to put the L in in a very precise way to get the case to close.

So are the turn signals wires cut and extended or does the stock wiring stretch that far?
 
I really wanted the V35 cases, but I was balking at the $1,000 cost. Got the rack and cases for $747. Sport Tour in Ohio sells the rack for $198 and gloss silver cases $549. Free shipping on Givi items. The gloss silver is almost perfect match and now I'm all dressed up with nowhere to go.


I'm new to this, but have started looking at options for some road trips this year. From what I read here, does this mean this is a good deal;?

yeah, I see that there is a feedback of zero, but these folks are confirmed Industries7 resellers....

The stock wires are not long enough, but you do not need to cut them. Inside the turn signal housing, the wires are connected with female spade clips. Unclip them and replace with two 18"-20" lengths (power and ground) of 20 gauge wire with spade clips (female at the signal end and male at the other) for each turn signal and run through Givi provided sheath through the original turn signal mount hole. Reconnect to original turn signal spade clip. Attach the sheath along the racks to tidy things up. I cut some black foam material to plug the hole in the rear body panels where the signals used to be.
 
I looked at these but they did not know when they were coming in. So I went with the color match ones from ind. 7
