Does the Givi box have a mounting plate with it? Do you have the LC luggage rack already fitted on the bike??

Hi guys, My RD is standard, no luggage rack, just the chrome handle. I'm thinking about custom making a couple of metal stripes, with two holes that will attach to the chrome handle bolts (I guess the handle comes off), and then they turn around 90 degrees, and a bit down, so I can attach a mounting plate with a couple of holes in each metal stripe. Here is a terrible drawing of what I'm thinking about, hope you understand it.
Or is there something ready to attach to the RD?

Will have to fit in place of grab rail , may not be that strong, easier to use tank bag.

You should be able to mount it straight to the grab rail using the "W" shaped fittings supplied with the baseplate, this has been on a friends or friends blade for years...

Now that rack doesn't look too out of place or ugly unlike the one for the 250/350LC that I've seen. |

The Givi racks always break . And the weight of rack and box will affect handling , esp on such a light bike . Do you need a box all the time ? Some of the couriers I used to work with simply bungeed the box onto the pillion seat when using it , and whipped it off when not needed . You'd have to put some small bolts through the plastic box for the bungees to hook onto . HTH .
