That is one strange custom sticker. Harley logo with Moto Guzzi in the center banner.  :shocked: Haha. Been looking for a top case for my Calvin. Just got off the phone with the guy and got weight and dimensions. As long as it won't cost an arm and a leg to ship, I'm going to buy it and have it shipped straight to my auto body buddy for refurb. Thanks for sharing!

Well, check that. Shipping is going to kill it for me. With shipping cost, I'd be into it for about $250 bucks, by the time by buddy does the refurb on it. Looking at some other possible options, but don't think it's in the cards.

I've had the same problem. Unfortunately, some of these guys just go right to Staples or the UPS Store...and simply say "do it all," because they're not paying. If they'd just go find a box somewhere, devote a little friendly effort and fill it full of crumpled newspaper, a lot of us would be able to put some of these deals together.

Oh well...
