Top Box in Thailand

Post by BobS »

With the wet weather coming in Thailand, I decided to mount a top box. I can always remove it and re-install the metal rack.

I decided to get the Givi E450N - a 45 liter box, with capacity for 2 helmets. This box is made in Malaysia, and is much cheaper that the Italian ones.

The story that I was told years ago was that the Malaysian factory was making counterfeit Givi boxes - and the quality was so good that Givi bought the factory. A good story that might be true.

I chose not to spend $50 plus for the Givi SR 1136 mounting kit - plus shipping charges and import duty, or carrying it over on my next trip. I found this locally made mounting rack for $25 that fits the PCX, the Forza, and other scooters.

It comes with multiple holes and spacers to fit the different bikes and baseplates.
