SHAD D0B23100 Side Cases SH23, Black, 0, 23l

Received on time and in good condition. Didn’t need the mounting bracket because they fit on my stock crash bracket I ordered from Kawasaki for $25. I changed out the Kawasaki plastic connectors for the new ones that came with the Shad cases. The Shad 23s look really good.

I bought these for my 2018 Honda CB650F. I already had the Shad top case and brackets and I wasn't sold on ANY side cases with this particular motorcycle. Luckily, others have posted videos and pictures and they actually look pretty good on this model!I also preferred the Shad 3P system as the brackets go with the bike's lines a lot better than those Givi brackets that look like sore thumbs sticking out with all that metal tubing. The Shad's 3P brackets, when not having the cases on, are not easily seen - which I really like!I have been a long-time fan of Shad. I've owned Shad for many of my old motorcycles and will continue to buy their products. I think Shad makes a better, more sleek-looking style of cases than Givi. (Givi just seems too bulbous for my style. Everything they make seems so...rounded and bubbly.) Having owned many of Shad's cases I can attest to their durability and style. Not that Givi is worse, just a style thing for me. (I've owned a lot of Givi cases, too, and they're very durable as well!)A good buy at a reasonable price!

Like another user also said, these cases are very nice & the 3P mounting system you need for them fits it well...For the most part. For some reason the design was to make the cases open away from the vehicle instead of toward it, in my case a Honda CTX 700. This makes the lid of the cases catch near the side because there isn't enough space for them to close fully. You end up having to shave them down with a metal file ruining part of the hard outer shell to get them to shut successfully. Some of the bolts just don't fit in fully into the frame of the vehicle either.Lot of extra work that shouldn't have been needed to be done, because the design of the cases is honestly quite dumb in one or two ways. The fact that these can't fit properly as is without additional sanding down of the sides means quality control for the bike mentioned on the installation sheet didn't do it's job.But after all that was done, they're installed as they should be & the quality otherwise is still pretty good. Just be aware you might have to do more than you already need to.

My NC750X came with the mount bars when I bought it used, these came with a different locking adapter so a quick swap was pretty easy. These boxes work so well!! Easy key lock, waterproof, really easy to remove if you have a passenger, holds more than enough inside, and looks sleek. Five stars!

Fantastic hard lockable saddlebags. The SH23's are great for a smaller bike. A half skull helmet will fit inside, and I am also able to put my jacket inside the opposite saddlebag so if I wear my gear out you don't have to take it into a store with you. Each saddlebag holds up to 11lbs and is rated for speeds up to 75mph. The install and come off very easily with the internal lock mechanism.

Plenty of storage room for jackets, gloves, rain gear, and tools. High quality and look like they came with the bike from the factory. Easy to remove and install with the press of a button. (Installed on a 2016 Versys 650.)

Fits the 2022+ KLR 650 factory mounts that can be had for $25.00!

One of the mounting tabs cracked and caused case to fly off on the highway. Never carried more then a sweatshirt in it.
