The Monolock line from the brand features top cases with an Urban connotation, equipped as standard with a plate and fixing kit and dedicated to the world of scooters and small/medium displacement motorcycles.
Three of the models in the range have recently been updated, not only from an aesthetic point of view, to return to the market with a new look.
We are talking about the K355, K400, and K466 models, top cases similar in terms of technical equipment and different in terms of internal capacity, respectively 35, 40, and 46 liters. A detailed analysis is presented in the following paragraphs.
Over the past year, Kappa has introduced several innovations in its range and made significant changes to some existing proposals, showing a clear desire to improve the functionality of its products and reduce its environmental impact, both in terms of the production process and packaging.
These changes also involved three Monolock cases, mainly dedicated to those who ride two-wheelers in metropolitan areas: K355, K400, and K466.
A crucial aspect for Kappa is to offer the end user the possibility to customize the products, for example, by matching them with the color of their vehicle. For this reason, the front covers of the three top cases – the front inserts with the logo, to be clearer – are no longer painted in metallic colors, but are supplied in black, as they come out of the mold. This option allows users to “customize” them by painting them as they wish.
Another relevant detail concerns the interior of the reflector. The three top cases are equipped with a front reflector, simple in the case of K355 and K466, and double in the case of K400.
So far, the interior of this piece had a silver polyethylene insert that reflected light, but this thin insert is unfortunately subject to easy wear over time. To solve this problem, the interior of the reflector has now been painted in silver chrome, both in the version with a red reflector (N2) and with a smoked reflector (NT2), ensuring greater resistance and durability.
