So, going to be buying a full set of Givi luggage.

Can anyone recommend a reailer to go for, or anyone to avoid.

Bonus if anyone knows of any sales or discounts that I could take advantage of so save a few $$$ Rolling Eyes

Check out German Online retailers, I've found them cheaper that UK even including shipping.

I have used FC Moto a few times they are good. Thumbs Up

Last two (only!) times I bought Givi kit, the cheapest UK supplier was https://northwestmotorcyclesdirect.com/ - service was great too. FYI I easily found a discount code on another forum as well, which worked fine

E-Bay from an Italian supplier. Saved a packet - over £100.

I did the same. I bought a Givi V47 top box, inner bag and backrest for less than the cheapest price I could find for the top box alone in the U.K.

Me too, Italy is the place to buy from. We are getting stitched up by UK Givi dealers.

Yes and no.
Yes the prices are higher but Givi UK have possibly the best customer service of a supplier in the UK.
When I needed some unlisted spares due to a theft they convinced Italy to supply them with a reasonable delivery date and then refused to take payment from me even for postage.
They also won't supply general parts that in their opinion you could get cheaper froma hardware store, in fact they tell you this so Givi UK get a Thumbs Up from me which is a rarity.

Why Givi specifically?
Are you after plastic or metal cases?

Just found a setup that I liked the look of, so no real reason.

Have a look at the components and compare prices with Kappa. I understand that they are the same, just rebadged.
