GIVI TREKKER OUTBACK HARD CASES
FOR THE HONDA AFRICA
A
dventure bikes are made for
traveling and exploring and to
do this, you need to add some
luggage. After considering several
options, we settled on the Givi Trekker
Outback series of side and top cases
for our Honda Africa Twin. If you are
going to be doing serious off-road rid-
ing, soft bags are the way to go, but if
you will be primarily on the road, or in
our case two-up for multi-day adven-
tures, hard cases are a great option for
space and security. We chose a large
48-liter left case (plenty big enough
for a helmet and jacket) and a 37-liter
right case (with extra spacing for the
exhaust, this equalizes the width). We
also added a 42-liter top case.
The Givi mounting brackets are
very well designed and include great
instructions for installation. They also
provide some added protection for the
bike with or without bags mounted.
The aluminum/polypropylene Trekker
Outback cases are very durable,
lockable, waterproof and easily
removed.
