You guys to the best web reviews for gear!

Nice overview. Would be cool to see you guys load them up with different configurations of items to illustrate how practical the storage is. Cheers.

You answer every on of my questions! THANKS.

Just as a note for anyone with the Givi PL or PLR racks, you can get the Kappa K-venture box, same box without the CAM side locks. Made by the same people, just without the CAM side locks.

Much more secure locking system onto the rack with the Kappa's too, simple and better engineered. I can switch back and forth from monokey side boxes to the kappa's in a few minutes.

I bought a used 42l top case with dents in them, and I hammered it out with a rubber mallet and smooth it out a bit, can hold 2 paper grocery sack. I absolutely love them. They look awesome on my Honda reflex. Those little strap hook come in handy. I can't wait for the camping season.

@@ananass8030 The pandemic ruin my camping adventure, so maybe this year I will find out-fingers cross. I am betting it will be a full reservation for camping as we are all yearning to get out more. But grocery shopping been much easier and I bought a custom bags that was made for this unit, which made it easier to make sure what I buy will fit.

I like these! I am going to get a full set of cases for my Africa Twin. My question is do you have to have them locked all the time requiring a key to open them all the time?

I just got these for my '14 tiger 800xc. I've got the top case mounted already. What's the part number for the side case racks? Is it PLR6409? Givi very confusing for sure.

Hey guys, another good review. In terms of "ruggedness", how does this compare to Touratech Zega Pros? From the video I couldn't help but wonder if its a a bit softer especially the latches and frame?

Yes, these Trekker Outback cases are the _only_ compatible cases (the Triumph cases are just rebranded versions of these cases). -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/givi-trekker-outback-37-liter-side-cases *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/givi-trekker-outback-48-liter-side-cases

All that and you didnt even show how the top box goes on and off 100% why people are searching for givi videos in the first place is to see if a bow will fit an existing rack , or vice versa.

Will these be worth the investment for strictly road touring? I'd like this design(Top loading, square, external tie-down points...) for my 17' Versys 1000LT. I won't be doing any off-road riding but I will be riding with a passenger. The weight of each side/top case is a little off putting, though. The stock cases that came with the bike are decent but there are no options for external gear lashing and the max load weight and volume are very restricting.

@RevZilla

Givi does not make side case racks for your Versys 1000LT, so these aren't an option. Instead, you might want to add luggage capacity with a top case. That also has the benefit of providing a bit of a passenger backrest. Take a look at both Givi and Shad. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/givi-sr4105-sr4105m-top-case-rack-kawasaki-versys-1000-2012-2017 *www.revzilla.com/givi-top-cases (see Monokey, not Monolock) *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/shad-top-case-rack-kawasaki-versys-1000-2012-2018 *www.revzilla.com/shad-motorcycle-luggage

Hi is the black finish easily scratched?

For a BMW R1200GS Adventure do you advise using two 37L cases or one 37 on the right and a 48 on the left to compensate for the extra size of the exhaust? Thanks!

@RevZilla

7 жыл бұрын

Both options can be done, but I recommend going with the slimmer 37L case on the right side and the 48L case on the left, since the right rack sticks out to clear the exhaust. You can see both options on the product page below. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/givi-pl5108cam-side-case-racks-bmw-r1200gs-adventure-2013-2017

I just purchased a 2016 Tiger 800xcx and the Outback side and top cases. I will be getting the smaller 42L top case. What exactly did you use to install the top case to your Tiger? You mentioned something Altrider and an adaptor plate. What I see on your bike is black which I prefer over the silver. I'm not a big fan of the SRA6401 plate which is bare aluminum. Thanks

@RevZilla

+Melanie Simpson We cannot call them completely waterproof, but practically speaking, the gaskets at the lid closure definitely keep the rain out. We still recommend you use lightweight dry bags inside the cases for items you need to keep dry. Because they're basically big buckets, we find that if it's raining and you need to open the case when stopped, a bit of rainwater can end up collecting in the bottom of the cases. Givi does make fitted dry bags for the Trekker Outback Cases. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/givi-t512-waterproof-inner-bag-for-trekker-outback-58l-top-case *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/givi-t511-waterproof-inner-bag-for-trekker-outback-42l-top-case *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/givi-t506-waterproof-inner-bag-for-trekker-outback-37l-side-cases *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/givi-t507-waterproof-inner-bag-for-trekker-outback-48l-side-cases

@@RevZilla I have a set of these and they are definitely not waterproof when you get them! I used some self adhesive closed-cell foam house window weather stripping between the lid and the box and now they seem to be OK. At least in the rain they don't leak. The left box collects a lot of condensation when the weather is cool though (like half a cup over a five or six day period). I'm not sure what to do about that. Looking around the internet it turns out that GIVI says THEY ARE NOT WATERPROOF, but that you can use their special bags if that's a problem. The bags are actually really nice and you don't have to take the whole box with you when you go inside BUT: For the price of these things I'm really disappointed that they let water in! The last thing I need when I'm travelling is wet gear!

I'd like to start with a Givi top case so my girlfriend can join me, but what about back supports for the top case ? Have you tried them, are they made from hard rubber ? ( it's difficult to see on pictures ) 2nd question related to riding with a passenger in the back ; is the Givi mounting system sturdy ( compared to for example Touratech gear ? ) Thanks.

That depends on the bike, the smaller bikes like the CB500X, if you use the 37L sides with a 58L top, you will have slight interference getting the sides open with the top box on. The lids must be pulled slightly outward to clear.
