Givi quick release side case racks (PLR2139 / PLXR2139) installation


Recommended Posts

Does anyone have these racks installed on their bike? I got everything installed on my 2019 Tracer and when I try to connect the quick release racks the bolts simply do not align with the holes on the forward bracket (the one connected to the passenger pegs). The hole on the bracket is just a little bit too low - maybe a 1/4" or less. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I installed that rack on mine in September. It is a royal PITA to install. I used a steel punch (similar to this) in the security lock hole on the passenger peg mount to pry the quick connect into place. These racks are in no way quick install or release! 

I did find that having them installed for a while seemed to make it easier to remove and install them, but I still have to use the punch to convince that mount into place.

Thanks for that. I tried as a test to install them without the rubber feet that go into the OEM mount points and everything worked perfectly. Basically the hooks that go into those mount points are too long so my plan is to grind off 1/4" on each and that should put the whole assembly in line with the quick release attachment points. I'll post pics if it works. 😀
