Title: GIVI Top Case Trade?
Post by: EvilBetty on November 17, 2009, 01:55:24 AM
I was looking for another top case for Patty's bike.  I won a red GIVI E36 on eBay but when I got it home Patty didn't like the red on her bike.

Anyone with a red steamer or maybe a Honda ST1100 want to trade for a black monkey case?  I have all the hardware for a ST1100 (minus the mounting plate, need to keep that) as well.

Flash makes them look weird, but they are the same red as the inside photo, only polished.  It's a little dirty.  There are packing peanut particles all over it being illuminated by the flash. (I can wash it up if you like and take some daytime pictures) but I don't see any damage on it.

I didn't scrub it down, but I rinsed the loose crud off / out of it.  Still some grime and bugs on one side.  I had no idea GIVI made the E45/E36 cases molded in red.

If you can't swap it, a paint shop would spray it for you.  They use plastcisers for plastic car bumpers so should work out ok.

I agree though, a stock black one would be better.

And I'd hate to paint over a rare GIVI case molded in red.  Surely someone would want such a thing.

You are hozed man!:)
