Givi V35 on a Bird

ALMOST DONE.

This is the first fit after cobbling the brackets together.

Just got to strengthen the welds (only tacked), brace from one side to the other, powder coat and remove the Suzuki badges.

Might get the top section of the painted panel matched to the bike.

best cost up another tailpiece as that one will crack by the grab rail mounting.

I don't keep the pannier scaffolding on the bike, only there when I use the boxes. The rack stays there but again hardly ever has a box on.
Only tend to use the box when my grandson is pillion or touring (and then its usually virtually empty while we're riding)
