PRO GuIDe Road-proof ergonomic 46-litre top case MT-07 belly pans and huggers PARTS AND ACCESSORIES Award-winning Spanish luggage specialist SHAD is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year, and EICMA saw the company continue its prolific new product programme with the new SH46 – “a top case that combines light weight and high capacity with a futuristic design”. The high-volume load capacity of 46 litres means it is able to carry two full-face helmets and its new, modern design gives it “an elegant look, a perfect fit for any motorcycle and rider”. Manufactured in durable, robust, road-proof high quality reinforced polypropylene composite, SHAD say the case is resistant to extreme temperatures and protects the interior cargo from impacts, rain, snow and road-wash. Features include a double locking system, secure mounting, carry handle and advanced, user-friendly ergonomics so it can be opened, closed and locked with just a single, simple one-handed motion. SHAD has also introduced a complete range of accessories to maximise comfort for the rider and passenger such as integrated backrest, space optimising inner bag and optional cargo rack and brake light.

The LV-10 is manufactured entirely from AISI 304 stainless steel, the LV-10 body sports a matt titanium look finish and a laser-etched LeoVince logo. “For those who love the dark tones, we also developed the ‘LV-10 Black Edition’ with its matt black finish. The rear stainless steel mesh embellishes the sandblasted end cap to give it an 42 extreme racing look”. Internally, a high thermal resistance (900 °C) fibreglass wool is applied with the use of a single proprietary and volumised yarn, to allow the sound- absorbing material to expand freely without the fibres losing integrity - this is said to greatly increase durability. It comes with a precision laser-cut bracket. Currently available for ZX-10R Ninja (low and high mount), Z-900, YZF 1000 R1, MT-10 models and Ducati’s Scrambler 800 ‘Desert Sled’.
