Michael Mims originally added SW-MOTECH sidecarriers and Givi E41 sidecases to his bike. SW-MOTECH and Givi do not offer a topcase carrier that's compatible with the SW-MOTECH detachable sidecarriers, so Michael modified a Five-Star topcarrier to allow the addition of a Givi topcase to his bike. Here's how!
"I just received the SW-MOTECH siderack and GIVI bags from you and mounted them up. Here are some photos that you can use if you like. I also adapted a Five-Stars rear rack to work with the SW-MOTECH mounts. Now I have a 3-case Givi setup on my 2005 CBR600F4i! Basically what I did was make four additional spacers like the ones included with the SW-MOTECH side case mounts for the upper mount that goes on the rear hand rail. I used them under the Five-Star rear rack to get it spaced up the proper amount. Then I used the SW-MOTECH spacers on top of the Five-Star rear rack to mount the SW-MOTECH bracket. I had to use a UNI bit to drill a large hole in the top tubing of the Five-Star rack so the Quick-Lock fastener can twist into the bracket and then down into the tube on the Five-Star rear rack. As far as the integrity of the tubing on the Five-Star rack it still seems very strong (even with the hole in it) because of the additional tube that Five-Star welds along the bottom of the main tube. I will take one side apart and take a few photos and send them to you. They may help understand what I did. It was pretty simple really but did involve a little time in the garage." -Michael Mims, May 12, 2007 |
