Twisted Throttle Mount for GIVI MONOKEY Boxes

[Bigcityd]

I too endorse this. I drilled out the stock panels using the provided template. Worked pretty well. I've loaded up the top box beyond recommended weight just as a test. Worked flawlessly. Planning a two week trip in October where I will load it up again. The Mrs. wanted a more secure perch and this is just what the doctor ordered.

Will this plate work with the factory back rest (F6B deluxe) installed or does it have to come off? I have a Givi 46 I have used on 4 different bikes, would like to use it for trips with the F6B.

According to the website, the backrest has to come off. I would guess they are using a pad on their top boxes...if they use it while riding 2-up. I have the Givi adaptor on the Honda rack so I don't have to remove the backrest. I haven't used the trunk yet though, but it is ready incase I ever need the extra space. The main reason I went this direction is because I already had this set up on another bike, so it was the simplest/cheapest solution for me.

I'll throw in some pics. I ended up with Dale's rack and started a search for a GIVI rack also. Ended up at Adventure Moto site and bought their rack for the Monokey. Drillled 4 holes in Dales rack and was done. You are shipped 2 racks bolted together and just need to take them apart to get the one shown, then bolt it to any flat rack. I'm waiting for my GIVI 47 to arrive.

Very nice set up. How did you run the wiring harness for Trunk lights?
Thank you

Easy enough to get feeds directly below the box at the rear taillight assy. I ran a small weatherproof plug up by one of the four posts and simply tuck away if I've not got the box mounted. Which is hardly ever.....

Finally got my back ordered rack from Twisted Throttle but these instructions are vague. I’ve taken the seat and backrest off but can’t figure out how to get to the brackets to replace them. Is there some video or set by step instructions that show how to get the plastic off over the brackets? I’ve been pulling around on it but don’t want to break any tabs.
