    Looks good

    I have been considering doing the very same thing, just haven't picked out my top box yet. Is that the Honda back rest mounted on the box? Also, what size box did you use that one looks pretty good.

    Too bad that VIP didn't come in the faster Red!

    They do sell them in Red, I just happened to have this one lying around. But then I would have to color match my luggage also

    Hows the quality on the VIP trunk...? I know there rather inexpensive but I found one for under $100.00, How much time does it take to put it on and off? Thanks, Fred

    Here is the one I added. It's a GIVI with the Twisted Throttle rack.

    It is an OK unit. It has very small lights that are pretty much useless unless you get the LED light bar. It just fits a full face helmet and locks with a key which is what I wanted. I made a small base plate and bolt it on in minutes when I need it for a trip or need a backrest for a passenger.

    Looks like you are ready for your ride to Sturgis Dan. Let me know how you like the Mustang.

    I used the Givi 47N, the 56 would not work for me to mount the back rest if I wanted to use the stock Honda pad.
