Top box

    Decided I need some luggage for my bike (z750s), and noticed an OEM
    Kawasaki rack and 29L top box in their catalogue. Never seen one "in the
    flesh" myself. I'd prefer hard luggage to the soft stuff.

    Has anyone? Any good? Is it easily detachable, like a Givi box? The
    price for the rack and top box (delivered) it seems is not much cheaper
    I would pay for a medium sized Givi Monokey box alone.

    The rack is built for Kawasaki by SW Motech (ALU RACK) but I have no
    idea who makes their top boxes. I could just buy the rack and get a Givi
    Monokey adapter plate from SW Motech if their boxes are crap. It appears
    I can also fit side rack to it in future if necessary.

    (Links, just in case anyone has the least bit of interest)

    Can't help with this bit since I don't own a Kawasaki but..
    ....I've just fitted an Alu-rack top box rack with the Givi adaptor
    plate. Expensive for what it is [1] but seems very well made and does
    the job nicely for those whose bikes aren't provided for by an official
    Givi system.

    One other thing. 29 litres doesn't sound very big at all.
