FAQs

What is the 'Top Master' system?

The 'Top Master' system is SHAD's proprietary mounting system designed for easy and secure attachment of their top cases to motorcycles. This kit includes the necessary 'Top Master' base plate for your specific bike.

Does this kit come with a top box?

No, this product is a fitting kit only. It provides the mounting hardware to attach a SHAD top case to your motorcycle. The top case itself must be purchased separately.

What tools are needed for installation?

Installation typically requires basic hand tools such as wrenches and screwdrivers. Specific tools may vary, so refer to the instruction manual provided with the kit.

How do I know if my motorcycle is compatible?

This kit is specifically designed for the Yamaha Diversion XJ900 SN models manufactured between 1994 and 2003. If you own a different model or year, this kit will not fit.

Can I install this kit myself?

Yes, the kit is designed for straightforward installation by the user. However, if you are uncomfortable with basic motorcycle mechanics, it is recommended to have a professional mechanic install it.

How should I clean the fitting kit?

Clean the fitting kit using a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the finish or components.

Is the top case weight capacity affected by this kit?

The fitting kit is designed to support the recommended weight capacity of compatible SHAD top cases. Always adhere to the maximum load specified by SHAD for both the top case and the fitting kit.

Troubleshooting

Fitting kit does not align with mounting points.

Double-check that you have the correct kit for your exact motorcycle model and year (Yamaha Diversion XJ900 SN, 1994-2003). Ensure no previous modifications have altered the mounting area.

Top case does not lock securely onto the fitting kit.

Verify that the fitting kit is installed correctly and all bolts are tightened. Ensure the top case and the fitting kit's mounting plate are free from dirt or debris. Try re-aligning the top case before attempting to lock.

Rattling or vibration from the mounted top box.

Check that all bolts securing the fitting kit to the motorcycle are tight. Ensure the top case is fully seated and locked onto the fitting plate. Some minor vibration can be normal depending on road conditions.

Difficulty attaching or detaching the top case.

Ensure the 'Top Master' locking mechanism on both the fitting kit and the top case is clean and lubricated if necessary. The connection points should be free of obstructions.
