I can't recomend Shad's top box rack enough. For anyone looking for a kawa rack that will stil enable you to keep the pillion passenger grab handles, look no further. It was easy to instal (an extra pair of hands is an added advantage), instructions are clear and easy to follow, and with six attachment points to the bike, the end product is quite sturdy. Then you stand back, admire your bike and it new look. I highly recommend this productnunconditionally.
