Mark, I have the Givi v46 monokey on my first gen. I cannot begin to tel you how great this thing is for commuting. I was actually thinking about getting rid of my SV until I put it on. Even on days when we go into the mountains to rip through WV you do not notice it is there. I will drop a picture of mine this afternoon. The Givi case is definitely worth the money. I will admit it does look a little like a UFO is chasing the moto down the road as one lister said. Shawn --- Mark Abreu <[email protected]> wrote: > Some of you remember my sad story.
