Anybody ever heard of this? My buddy on an FZ6 site saw a review by somebody on that board and they look similar to Givi, but at a substantially lower cost... I can't find much with a google search.

My understanding from reading on the internet that it still is Givi. It supposed to be their economy line of hard luggage.
edit to add: I have no personal experience with Shad, but I do own several Givi hard cases.Last edited by squiggy; 08-22-2008, 08:32 PM. -
Did I really read it that poorly? I might be facepalming here in a second...
Why do you think its Givi cheapo line? I can't find anything in that thread that would imply that and I'm not seeing anything on Givi's site...Last edited by philwecksr; 08-22-2008, 09:16 PM.None of us are as dumb as all of us.....

Shad is Spanish (not Givi, which is Italian).
Manufacturer's site is http://www.shad.es/
Select English as the language in the IDIOMA drop-down, and Reino Unido in the PAIS drop down to get English+USA, then hit enter.
No clue on quality & pricing, but it's not that hard to design a decent hardsided case if you have access to injection-molding equipment and reasonably good labor.

Check out this ebay seller whom is Canada based. They carry the SHAD line and had listed a complete set for the Kat six months ago. Inquire with the for the racks and hard case.
I almost bought the SHAD case and rack for the Kat from then, but decided to get soft bags instead.

Can you buy everything directly from the importer, or you still need to get it thru their distribution network?sigpic

well let me rephrase. that was the company they listed on the site cyber posted. you can buy from them...they have a site.... i haven't seen(because i haven't looked) for other locations to buy.
Edit: reading that binetto doesn't sell to public directly. But they have some local dealers and online vendor listings. 9 in NY GSXF....
