Extended Product Information
FAQs
Is this plate compatible with other Shad cases?
No, this specific plate (D1b37par) is designed exclusively for the SH37 top case.
Does this include the bolts to attach it to the bike?
It typically includes standard mounting hardware, but specific motorcycle models may require additional mounting kits sold by Shad.
Can I install this on a generic luggage rack?
It is strongly recommended to use this plate with a Shad-branded rack to ensure safe and secure compatibility.
What is the weight limit for this plate?
The weight limit is generally determined by the top case capacity and the motorcycle's rear subframe rating; always consult your motorcycle's manual.
Does the plate fade in the sun?
The material is UV-stabilized, but keeping your bike stored out of direct, intense sunlight when not in use helps maintain the finish.
Can I replace the lock later?
Yes, Shad cases and plates often support cylinder replacements if you need to re-key your luggage.
Troubleshooting
Top case feels loose or wobbly
Check all mounting bolts securing the plate to the bike rack to ensure they are tight.
Case will not lock into the plate
Inspect the locking mechanism for dirt or debris and ensure the case is fully aligned with the plate slots.
Visible wear on the mounting points
Check for misalignment in the rear rack; if the rack is bent, the plate will experience uneven stress.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation requires standard metric hand tools and typically involves bolting the plate to an existing Shad rear rack or a motorcycle-specific adapter kit. Always ensure all bolts are tightened to the manufacturer's torque specifications to prevent vibration loosening. For compatibility, verify that your rear rack is specifically designed for Shad SH37 hardware, as mounting points can vary significantly between brands. To maintain the plate, simply wipe it down with a damp cloth during your regular bike cleaning routine. Avoid using harsh chemical solvents that might degrade the high-impact plastic construction. Regularly inspect the locking tab for debris to ensure the case engages and releases smoothly.
