    Armchair Comfort

    Anyone using a topbox and carrying a pillion will know the forward cant of the box can cause discomfort to the passenger. I saw a quick & easy ‘wooden wedge’ solution on an Africa Twin and decided to refine it a little. I used 25mm plastic (Delrin) because it machines so nicely and blends in well with existing parts.

    The Givi mounting plate for the 650 TA comes with a couple of wedges that make the top box mount level. Strange that the manufacturer's own system doesn't do that!

    Cracking job!

    You've also now got a handy little cubby-hole for storing wedges of cheese. Very appropriate to your avatar I thought!
