This is a problem. And it IS worse with heavy load, because the bike is lower in the rear. Especially on bumpy roads.
I have original Givi carrier on a 93 RD07. The older smaller Givi cases. A narrow 28L on the right side (helps a lot), and a 36L on the left side. The right side is still wider and hits the groud first.
I adjusted the spring of the read shockabsorber a lot harder. This made the bike higher in the rear. And it also made the bike more stable in bumpy curves, with and without passenger/baggage. But be careful not to make the chain too tight if you make the bike higher this way.
Next weekend I am going to take off my winter tires with spikes, and mount my summer tires. Even here in Norway the snow are now melting.

Hi @-Riders !
At the weekend i drive my @ the first time this year with my new
mounted Givi-Side-Cases with original Five-Star carrier. After a few
curves and a lot of fun, my side-case touch the ground !!!!!
Unbelievable !! I sit alone on my @ and the cases were empty. So i
think what will be happen with 2 persons and full loaded cases, they
will be pulled off ??? Now my question: have anybody sometimes make
the same experience, and after this did you change anything ?? Thanxs
in advance for every hint .....
Freundliche Gruesse
