Nice comparison photos. For me, it would be worth the added cost for the SW-Motech mounts to have them closer to the bike. Plus they come with the quick release hardware which is an added cost for the Givi.OK. Below photos are your picture compared to a picture of E22's on SW-Motech side carriers mounted on a 2012 NC (not mine, but same setup as mine). The latest Givi hardware, in my opinion, seems excessively wide for my tastes. I don't understand why Givi does it that way. I guess it leaves room to mount tool boxes inside the racks, but even on my SW-Motech carriers, I have enough room that I have mounted tool tubes to the inside of the racks.View attachment 47092View attachment 47093
