Looking to do a trip in the near future once the lockdown is relaxed. So, putting the feelers our to see if anyone has any of the above. White would be preferred but not a deal breaker.

Skids had a large topbox for sale a while back, might be worth a try

Such racks are available from Givi or SW Motech. £45.
It's still available.

CBM Thanks for the heads up.
Corringdon I already have the standard 31lt one so ideally a 45lt would be the one I’d be looking for. I will keep your offer in mind though.
The bike did originally come with panniers but were sold before I bought it. Still wondering if it’s best to go down the bike specific ones or the aftermarket ones. With the latter, I could always keep them for my next bike. If I ever changed that is!
Regards

Thanks for letting me know Skids.
Corringdon, you say a bike specific rack needs to be purchased for the plate to fit. Would it have to be a Givi one or would the plate fit onto the original Honda one?

I'm sorry, Goggins, I can't answer that question because all Givi bike specific racks have different fittings and fixtures. The rack for the latest CR is SR1139. The photo below shows the holes in the Givi plate which attaches to the SR1139 rack. I've added letters, and the measurement between A and B is 155mm, between C and D 159mm, between A and C and A and D it's 165mm.
The dimensions of the SR1139 rack can be viewed at this link:
https://media.givi.it/XN-Prodotti/istruzioni/SR1139.pdf
from which you may be able to determine similarities between it and the Honda rack.
Some of my past bikes. Norton ES2 - Norton 650SS - Velocette Venom - Velocette Thruxton Venom - Kawasaki Z1100 ST - Kawasaki GPZ 1100 B2 - Honda CB500.

Honda luggage is made by Givi and you should be able to use your ignition key to unlock it. You can see both the rack and adapter plate on the RHS of this copy of the Honda accessories brochure.
You still need an adapter plate for any make of top box though. Seems like a bit of a rip off.....why two? Why doesn't it fit direct to the rack?

Re Givi adapter plate. I went for the Givi M35 metal plate to fit a Givi Monokey Top Box. Two allen headed threadlocked bolts will bolt through to the original Honda rack (no drilling required), with a couple of small spacers between plate and rack.
Very sturdy, and tested on a couple of trips to Gibraltar Spain with an overloaded Givi V47 topbox without any issues whatsoever.
The Givi M3 plate is the same design but plastic, so I would avoid.
I think the M35 plate is being discontinued according to Sportsbikeshop:
https://www.sportsbikeshop.co.uk/motorcycle_parts/content_prod/212296
but I see it is still available here:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Givi-M35-Aluminium-Plates-Complete-Carrier/dp/B0046AZ9XI
or here
https://www.mandp.co.uk/products/m35-monorack-top-plate-520435
Don
PS Think the amazon seller is in italy, so would go with M&P, unless you can find a secondhand one on ebay.
