The new aluminium Outback EVO side cases are sold WITHOUT Smart Security Lock. Without a lock? Yes, indeed. You buy and fit the locks separately. But there’s no need to worry: all of this is effortless because the system was designed for this. GIVI went for the innovative, safe and secure ‘Smart Security Lock’ because it is a sure way to handle your complete Outback EVO motorcycle case set with a single key.
Attention: this right-sided side case is specifically suited for motorcycles with an exhaust on the right side of their saddle, next to the motorbike. In these cases, a little storage space is lost to make room for the tailpipe. However, this allows the width of both the left and right-side cases to remain identical.
Just like all the other Outback EVO motorcycle cases, these have also retained all their household properties. In these Outback EVO side cases, GIVI links convenience to durability. The typical, rectangular shape is synonymous to portions of adventure and quality is always guaranteed. So is splashproofness which is not the same as 100% waterproofness!
Just like earlier (recent) Outback versions, these EVO side cases celebrate the return of the Hold it Active System. This ensures that the side case cannot clash to the ground when unhitched from its holder. It’s not that they cannot take that but it’s still a welcome improvement. You could say the same of the stainless-steel lid that can be rotated to move to one side as well as be completely unhinged.
What is new is an added safety in the form of an internal handle, preventing unwanted removal of the side cases and a safety button that ensures that the lid can always be locked, even when you don’t put the lock in that position yourself. Not coincidentally, those are a lot of Smart Security Lock changes. The reinforced corners of the Outback EVO side cases also received an update while all mounting options for accessories and extra luggage remained intact. The handles are sturdier, the logo in relief a little more pronounced.
The Outback EVO side case exists in this form - with cut-out for the exhaust - in three finishes: black, anodised aluminium or natural aluminium. The volume is identical in each case and amounts to 33 litres.
This case has a series of optional accessories:
- Reflective stickers: to make you more visible in the dark, a set of E145 reflective stickers is available. In vertical position, they fit perfectly on the flattened corners of these cases.
- Cargo bag: on top of this Outback Trekker, an additional cargo bag GRT714B or EA120 can be mounted with a set of tension straps S351. Besides the GRT714B, there's another kart bag available: the XL01B.
- Luggage nets: use the space that the trunk lid has to offer inside. Mount a luggage net E144 in it and store many small items. On top of this case, the luggage net T10Z can be easily attached.
- A backpack: T521 with a capacity of 15 litres that can be stored in the upper tray of the case.
- Interior lighting: the rechargeable LED lighting E198B with sensor comes in handy when looking for something in your case in the dark.
Care instructions: as this case is made of aluminium, it requires slightly more maintenance than a plastic case. For cleaning these cases we recommend S100 Moto Wash. NEVER use maintenance products that contain acids or other corrosive substances. Such products cause dark stains which are very difficult to remove afterwards.
Watertightness: the GIVI side cases and top cases are not waterproof. They were awarded an IPX4 rating. Having the right expectations always helps prevent disappointment.
