I had Ducati top and side cases installed at time of purchased on a 2012 Pikes Peak. Side case are the large volume size. Bike had 1800 miles on it at time cracks were noticed. The side latches from GIVI are cracking/splitting at case seam and the top case is cracking at the large mounting attachment screw for the colored inserts at the forward side on both sides, Dealer just replace one rear latch and both top case inserts.
Both new dealer installed colored inserts have a stress molding defect where the largest attachment screw installs them which is the same place the last inserts cracked. So they are ordring new parts again. Anyone else experiencing this issue who have the Panniers? The cases have never been overloaded. It seems like materials or process GIVI is manufacturing these cases is flawed and will repeatdly exhibit the same problems.
We rode to summit of Pikes Peaks on July 4th. So bike is an limited limited edition Pikes peak model now since it has offically "Summited the Peak". Notice my wife has the collectors Pikes Peak rally T-Shirt dated July 8th we bought at lodge on top. I do not know what they'll do for shirts since the rally was postponed till August 12th.
