Hey all, first post here so apologies if this is the wrong place. I've got a 2013 V650 and I've been pulling my hair out trying to find some hard cases for the thing. I have the OEM top case but it's simply not enough storage, and I can't wear a backpack for long rides because of a jacked up left shoulder. I've got some soft bags but they're fiddly to mount and unmount, and they flop around when leaned over. So I really want hard cases with a solid quick release mechanism. All the major brands like Shad and Givi have long since discontinued their kits for the 2nd Gen, and I can't even find any used. Anyone have an idea? I've been scouring the web and can't find anything. Located in the USA would be preferable, but at this rate I'll pay for international shipping if it's the only option. I'm at the point where I'm thinking maybe I should just learn to weld just so I can cannibalize a kit for a different bike entirely.
EDIT: I've decided to compromise and order the Givi trekker top case and necessary hardware, which is still in stock and gives me more to work with the the OEM case. I have made a new thread under the want to buy section in case anybody decides to sell the side case hardware I originally wanted.
