Before we froze our tails off, I finally got the top case I sanded down before the pandemic painted.

Looks like a good match

I was honestly surprised at how close it turned out.

'all/right', matches up with the bike nicely.

Thanks Dawadd, and FarsideF6B.

Yeah it was pretty unpleasant for many. My Mom and Dad didn't have electricity or water for 48+hours in negative temps. I'm glad we came through it.

I prefer the B without a top case, which is why I went with the Givi. I like the mount much better than the alternatives. But especially in person, it's amazing how much difference painting it to match makes in appearance. Looks really premium, imo. For anyone that's interested in doing it, I used an adhesion promoter from O'reilly's, and a rattle can from Color-rite. 3 coats of promoter and about 5 coats of spray.
