I just found out what the problem was. Two months ago I took apart all the plastic to get to the carb and air housing. When I put everything back I had two screws remaining. Of course, I was to lazy to find out where they go. My honda mechanic just told me the air housing to the carb was not tight and had separated. This is what was causing the stalling. At $191 which includes pickup, new spark plug and tightening I learned my lesson the hard way. Do the job right if your going to play home mechanic. Thanks for everyone's help.

Thanks to all for the info. Found everything on Givi's website. All the info I'd found previous to this showed that the Givi cases wouldn't fit an '01 but I didn't look in the right place.

I had to use a bit of creativity and shimming (about 6 minutes and one Miller Lite's worth) to secure the mount to the luggage wing (I do not have a Sport Reflex, but, if I recall, there was plenty of hardware in the kit to mount the baseplate to a tubular rail/rack) and I bought a bit of weatherstripping to stop a tiny lid rattle, but it holds my XL helmet and any riding jacket I own, or a load of groceries that you wouuldn't believe. the link
