Main Features Explained
Interior space and dimensions
We start our analysis of this Givi product, an old acquaintance when it comes to motorcycle trunks, talking about the interior space and the dimensions of the product. Starting with that capacity, it is a product with no less than 52 liters of useful capacity, so that inside you will be able to store two full-face motorcycle helmets without having to worry about anything.
To do this, the drawer has measures within the usual for this type of product. Specifically, the trunk has a height of 31.5 centimeters by 46 centimeters long and 60 centimeters wide. Some measures that make the product suitable to be mounted on all types of motorcycles of a certain size, although it is true that the product may be somewhat bulkier than recommended for small motorcycles, such as scooters and the like.
As for the load capacity, it is 10 kilos in total, as long as the assembly instructions are respected and it is carried out using the appropriate plate for our motorcycle. Capacity that is in line with other models on the market with similar measurements. Regarding its tare, the weight of the trunk is 4.01 kilos, being very precise.
Manufacturing materials
Another of the details that help us trust that our things will be safe in this trunk are the construction materials used in its preparation. Something that jumps out at first sight in aspects such as the aluminum cover of the entire piece, with a nice brushed finish and that adds extra resistance to the product against all kinds of external threats. All this without adding more weight or reducing the drawer’s versatility.
The rest of the body of the trunk is made of high-quality plastic, with the material thick enough to withstand any bump or fall that we may have during our route, thus adequately protecting the content. This plastic material also covers the piece in the upper part, the one lined in aluminium, thus giving more resistance and integrity to the whole.
As for the interior, it has the necessary treatment to prevent your helmets from being scratched or that what you transport deteriorate due to friction. All this without forgetting a high resistance, which prevents that interior from deteriorating as a result of use. Something that arouses good opinions among users.
Mounting and security
To conclude our analysis of this model, located among the best motorcycle trunks on the market today, it is time to take a look at assembly and safety. Two issues that go hand in hand and that, as usual in the entire Givi range, the product exceeds with flying colors.
Starting with the assembly, this is easy if you have the corresponding adapter plate. It is true that this plate is not included with the trunk and that you will have to buy it separately, but it is also true that since each motorcycle has a specific grill, it is the best way to have the plate you need. Besides, its adjusted price also cushions that additional purchase. Something that guarantees that the trunk will remain stable in its place, without posing a risk during the route.
Regarding security, in addition to the assembly, it is also adequate to prevent thieves from accessing the interior. To do this, the product has a traditional security lock that, despite its image, is much more complicated to violate than would be conceivable. In addition, thanks to the structure and materials that we have discussed before, it is also not possible to forcefully gain access to the interior, unless the thief organizes a considerable scandal in the process.
