OOOOP'S & OUCH!!!
I pulled into my parking spot by my back gate yesterday, went to get off the mana and my leggings caught on the Givi carrier arm, and yes you guessed it down I went bike an all  
  lovely lump on my knee with graze, house keys came through my jacket  
  Mana has very minor damage to exhaust plates, air filter cover and thats it. My top box stopped alot of damage being caused like it did when I dropped my Nexus years ago lol.

I find it hard to locate it whilst sat on the bike, and I never trust it's fully down.

Re: OOOOP'S & OUCH!!!
I'll tell you one thing though, people ask what are the best frame sliders to fit, well I'll recommend a Givi topbox to anyone lol.
