Cheap top case

[RichKat]

I purchased a cheap ($80) from Amazon got delivered today (a week early! )
Not a Givi, but not $400 either
Heavy duty plastic is thicker than I expected. Grey lenses aren't reflective, but will be easy to put brake and turn lights in. One down side is a screw on attachment method, has a big tab on front and a screw inside (with hand knob) to attach it to the plate. Thanks to inflation, just couldn't swing price of the Givi right now, and I had $75 credit with Amazon, so grabbed this for now. When I got the ST it had a Givi plate on it, so I will eventually get a Givi. Overall I feel it's not a bad deal at all

I bought a similar cheapie top case ( Bestem brand) 11 years ago, and it is still working well. I have bases for it on both bikes, and transfer it often. I suspect that a lot of the Chinesium cases are all made in the same factory.
The Bestem has 50k+ miles on it now, and works great.

Looks good and what a great deal.

Kathy and I went for a ride today (before it went over 100°) and she really likes the top case, has a decent back rest on it, and it's at a good height for her. It's stable and gives her good support. So I have to say, it's definitely worth the money, now how will it hold up?

... she really likes the top case, has a decent back rest on it, and it's at a good height for her...

Lounging pillions...
Not my thing, messing up the handling, risk of her dropping into my back during braking...
