Any one got images of how this Kappa Monokey Luggage Tubular Motorcycle Side Case Holders - KL257 go on the bike with the Givi 257FZ Monorack arms? I have bolts and spacers but no order of where they go 🙄

Came across this while looking for topcases for my VFR1200. For about the same price as a JC Whitney case you can get a Kappa! $59 and free shipping. http://tourandride.com/browse-products/kappa-moto/cases/monolock-cases/k35n-monolock-case-35ltr-detail

I've decided to replace my 20-year-old tank bag with some of the funds the government kindly held for me last year ... After much searching of the Interwebs, I think I'll try one of the new-fangled tanklock models. I was thinking Givi, but I'm not sure what's going on with their lines and/or stock. The bag everyone was writing about a year or two ago was the T480 but that appears to be out of production. It looks like it was replaced with the XS line. Of those, the XS306 seems a bit large, and the XS307 is not in stock in most places. That led me to the Kappa RA308, which appears to be comparable to the XS307 and uses the same Givi mounting hardware. A few reviews rate the Kappa more highly because of its shape and how the expansion is handled. So ... questions: Does anyone have experience with these bags? What is your recommendation? And for the Kappa--there don't appear to be many North American distributors. I did find one online called Tour & Ride--does anyone have experience with them? Their phone number appears to have a Nevada area code (775), but the only address I could find on the site (under Terms and Conditions) is in Charlotte, North Carolina. Any help appreciated.
