HELP! top cases that fit Alt Rider luggage rack???

[lvelasquez23]

Hey guys!


This is my first post!

Im having some trouble finding info on which top cases are compatible with my Alt Rider rack and I would be really grateful if you guys could help me out!

I'm planning on buying a top case (at last) and I think i've narrowed it down to two possibilites:

1) SW Motech Trax Alu-box 38 liter
2) Hepco Becker Xplorer 45 liter

I like both and each of them have different pros and cons. Nonetheless, I havent been able to find if any of the two fit the Altrider luggage rack. I know Alt rider sells mount kits for Givi top cases ( http://www.altrider.com/givi-monokey-top-case-mounting-kit-for-altrider-luggage-rack/pid/487) but i dont know if that kit would fit any of my two options. I also know SW Motech sells 2 different adapter plates (http://www.twistedthrottle.com/trade/productview/5822/688/).

I know that I could eventually fit the Trax top case in the Alt rider by drilling holes because someone out there already did it. But if i could avoid that, I would be happier

Im open to any suggestions anyone might have.

Thanks a LOT!!!

No idea, I use the Givi top case with the altrider rack.

I bolted a 1500 Pelican Case to my Altrider rack (obviously not quick release). It fit great and it nice to have secure, dry storage without having to put the panniers on.
This case has been mounted on two other bikes and has done great. I have 12V power run into it for charging music players, cameras etc (great for multi-day camp trips).
