Very nice! But.........

With that topcase and the Yamaha mount you could overload your rear subframe causing it to crack. Only put light things in the topcase. Best solution is to mount the Givi rack and figure out how to get the Yamaha topcase mounted to it. Others have done so. Also, personally I cringe when I see metal screws used for mounting the windscreen. Yamaha used those crappy nylon screws for a reason. Like it breaking off in a wreck instead of you going through it when it has pointy things that might try to hurt you. Don't ask me how I know.....
