    I can't seem to find Honda factory hard cases to match my pearl white '06 for love or money so I am thinking about purchasing gloss black Givi V35N cases.

    Just wondered if anyone else has gone this route and has a comment or a pic or two of how the cases look against the white. Or any other ideas would be welcome too. I have tried David Silvers in the UK but they don't appear to have the white version either at least from what I can see on their web site.

    I think it would look slick.

    I just spoke to the Givi rep at the Chicago M/C show in regards to V35 cases for my 06. He said around April they are going to come out with detachable hardware to clean up the look of the bike. So the hardware will quick come off as well as the bags giving a cleaner look when not in use. I may wait for this. He recomended SporttourLtd.com. as it provides free shipping plus 10 percent off MSRP. I think the total will be around 800 bones? Let me know if u do it?

    Its too bad you cannot get the Honda ones, I bought my 05 Pearl White with the Hondas attached. I've only used them once, Im pretty impressed with how much they hold and they dont look to shabby either.

    Why you don't buy from David and paint them?

    Painting the saddle bags if you get a used pair for cheap is easy to have done. It's a cheap paint job too.

    Rick Roush doesn't ship beyond the US so I am going to look again at orderting these from the UK and then painting them to match the pearl white. Anybody see a problem with that?

    Thanks!
