What a royal PITA.<br /><br />So, I guess my choices, assuming I want to keep the FZ539 topcase rack, are 1) go with the Givi sidecase rack and live with the awful placement of the turn signals or 2) keep searching for the OEM side case bar mount Suzuki part No. 99D0D0-17h00-060, which I have been unable to find.<br /><br />I would really like to use the OEM side case bar mount but that part does not seem to exist.<br /><br />Any suggestions would be appreciated.<br /><br />I appreciated your time and expertise.<br /><br />Thanks,<br /><br />Jeff Jeffnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6281151294034294218.post-1107135270788629832014-07-17T10:50:59.367-07:002014-07-17T10:50:59.367-07:00Not seen those racks in the flesh.
