Are there any other top cases other than the ones offered by Buell that will fit the stock top case mounting bracket? I have the side cases and just installed the top case bracket, but am looking at other options for a case itself. Any of the Givi cases fit the stock bracket with their mounting plates? Or is the stock bracket too small?
Thanks for the help.

Any Hepco & Becker top cases (Gobi, Journey, Junior, etc.)

If I had the $$, I'd pick up that sexy Gobi top case in black.

I like the service at Adventurer's Workshop.

One that I'm seriously considering is the Happy Trails 33L top case. It's very low profile, but wide and spacious; perfect for sleeping bags, tents, laptops, brief cases, etc. It looks industrial, but adventurous. The mounting plate is universal and can be fitter to any rear rack with minor fabrication. I find it's shape much more useful than the traditional cube shaped boxes.

What do you not like about the HB Junior? It's space is great, truly useful.

nothing against the OEM top case. Just lot of other options to consider. That, and most other cases are more readily available.
