    Hi,
    The Shad expandable top case looks really interesting. Has anyone installed it on a Gen 8 using either the OEM rear rack or another brand rack? Shad doesn't make a rack but it includes a "universal" mounting plate with the top case that can be adapted to other racks. Just wondering how difficult it is to adapt the Shad to the Gen 8. Thanks.

    Hi,

    I just finished fitting a Givi V56 to my 8th gen this afternoon. The rack part fitted nicely and doesn't look like it's interfering with anything. [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]

    There is a Shad top rack for the gen 8. I have the complete Shad 3p system on my gen 8. I believe the expandable is part of the system. I purchased the Shad top rack H0VF84ST, VFR800F (2014) at Cli-Max Riding Gear for $132. https://www.cli-maxridinggear.com/manufacturers/shad-mounts/shad-mount-kits-honda/ Hope this helps. BTW shop around for prices I bought bags overseas with free shipping for about 1/2 price in states.

    Thanks Zeta. That's great info and helps a lot. I thought Shad had discontinued that kit but I guess not.
