I tried to order a Givi E52 Top Case for my 07 K1200GT from the dealer I purchased the bike from but they could not find the correct parts and Givi said there is not a mounting kit for the new GT yet. After lots of research and finding the correct mounting kit in this forum, I thought i would post the parts I ordered. I have a Deep Blue Metallic bike and the Givi B508 - Burgman blue is the same exact color.

I ordered the top case with stoplight kit, backrest, mounting plate and top rack for my camping gear. I also ordered the foam liner to protect my stuff.


Here are the parts. Ordered from RL Motorcycles.

It's expensive but less than the BMW case, a little larger and has the stop lights. If it did not have the lights in it I would have purchased the BMW case. I find that I do not have enough room to carry all my stuff to work each day and have room for my helmet and gym clothes. I need a top case and want a back rest for my passenger. Hate to lose her next time I accelerate.

StopLight Connectivity

How did you wire your stoplight assy. ? I connected mine directly to the hot side of one taillight bulb, thus had running and brake lights due to the nature of the single wire system on the GT's..

A GIVI USA Rep, told me the connectors/assys were not designed to have power 100% of the time and would eventually fail if I continued use in this manner,... because the plastic housing used around the connectors would not holdup to the continued heat load generated by 100% on-time.

I have disconnected my light until I know for sure what will happen, or come up with another solution.

Any thoughts from others on this.. ?
