I needed to place an order for my 89. I wanted a touring one. These look cool/different.

Mine cost me $175 shipped, took 3 months to deliver, as they are made to order.
Bought it through a motorcycle parts catalog (can't think of the name right off the top of my head).

That is where I ordered mine from!
Thanks George!

Got my Givi hardcases from Twisted Throttle.  VERY good service with them!  They have guys that answer the phones and actually know something about the products they sell!

I think I paid the same and the shipping time was the same through twisted throttle a couple years ago too... Love it! 
I've always had good luck with twisted throttle.

I believe this is the one company that is not recommended. I know that the windscreens DO NOT come pre-drilled. Molded plexiglass/Lexan/acrylic is difficult to drill without cracking.

If you DO decide to get one of these, get the drill bit they sell along with it.
