CB1100EX - Honda rear rack - Givi monokey plate E251

[xmike_imp]

So that black rack is on its way to Slovakia (bought from Endurance on Rakuten, they sent me tracking number today). With postage it was 25650 yen (192 euro). Of course, I have to pay custom duty and tax when it arrives, which should be around 50 euro. I will post photo when it arrives and when I mount givi plate on it.

Thank you Ole for photos and Popgun and Cormanus for comments. It was really helpful. If I can mount givi plate only with clamps, I think I will buy black rack without any hole and with handgrips for pillion (found on rakuten).


When I buy anything, I will post comment and photos, how is rack mounted.

I like it. Goes well with the bike. Can strap lots of things to that.

Yes, popgun, I know that honda racks for 13 and 14 are different. But that information, that givi plate should be mounted with those butterfly clamps (and it is not needed to mount it to rack with some hole on the rack) is sufficient for me. Now I think that I can mount givi plate maybe on any rack that has some sort of tubes without holes (if those tubes are thick enough of course). Don't worry, I will not blame anyone if it will not work like I hope it should.

Note: When I thought about honda rack for EX/DLX 14 and givi plate, I wanted information if givi plate can be mounted with using of those holes on flat "tubes" on that rack.

Offtopic: Here in Slovakia, Bratislava, are quite cold (0-6 degrees of celsius). I was sitting on sofa, playing some adventure on smartphone and for a few seconds I heard motorcycle engine in high revs (some supersport bike). A moment later sound of crash... It was CBR (dont know what displacement) and it had quickie with mercedes ML. Don't know who is quilty, but when I was in market for motorcycle my priorities were: it must be quite comfortable, it must look like motorcycle, not some sort of plastic modern transformer and it should be able to run at low revs and it must calm me down. Young guys on bikes flying with 11k rpms through city,... It seems it's just matter of time.

Sadly, this is hilarious . . . .

It looks very nice! Hope you are as happy with it as I am mine.

Did you order the rack from Rakuten ? and the Give plate and box elsewhere ?

[xmike_imp]

I didn't have chance to test my new topcase, weather is kidding. But I like it's dimensions. In future I plan to buy E55 maxia for little "touring" with wife. This small topcase will be used as something where can I store disc lock,...

Chapomis: Yes, rack is from Endurance's shop on Rakuten, plate and topcase are from two shops in Slovakia. Plate was 37 EUR, topcase 89 EUR (much better price than on amazon, where I saw 170 USD for that case).
