Today I got something new, a top case. And to make the quad bike even more international I added some Italian flavour. It's a Givi E340 Vision Tech.

They also had one with a red reflector but I think this matches better with the rear light. Might still add some leds to it some day as an extra brake light.

This plate came with it for attaching the case. I'll first have to make a drawing again and have some mounts made so I can attach this plate and the rear light + signal lights.

Now you might be wondering why I'm already busy with accessories while the quad bike isn't even drivable yet. But this top case won't just be for storage. I have these 2 contactors to be able to drive forward and in reverse but I had no idea how to place them properly.

I ofcourse could build some enclosure again but I don't think this would look good since it's a rather big part so it sticks out pretty much. The plan now is to just place this in the top case, this way I'll have an enclosure that's already water and dirt proof and also some extra storage. Might also place the 12V battery and other electronic parts in here, at least I won't have to find some space in the frame then.

I'm also looking if I can mount the license plate at the bottom behind the bearing house. But I'm waiting for the RDW to confirm if this is allowed. The rules state that it should be mounted at the appropriate place. But well, what is that exactly? Not really very clear is it. But I think it would be a nice position for it, the controller would be visible from behind as well then. Otherwise the license plate would be in front of it.
