root Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 looks good! is there any way to adjust the placement forward or back with it to give the passenger a little more room or is it locked to one position? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philkin Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 This is made by Yamaha? Does it use the same support arms that the standard Yamaha rack uses for their Trunk. Is this a USA or Europe part? Does anyone know if Givi makes an adapter for their their two similar but different trunk attachment systems. I have both each uses the different system. I would like to be able to put either on my bike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SR2122 is a topbox rack to which you can fit a Monolock or Monokey base plate I enquired today - the UK wholesaler does not have any in stock but they are expecting them in the next week or two This signature is left blank as the poster writes enough pretentious bollocks as it is.

beo Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 I used the Givi E251 Universal Monokey Top Case Adapter Plate with the Givi V47 Tech Monokey Top Case using the Yamaha OEM rear rack (2PP-F48D0-V0-00). I simply replaced the Yamaha plastic parts with the Giviv E251 plate and longer screws towards the ends. It's rock solid loaded at 100+ mph (tested) and the faux carbon fiber in the V47 Tech makes it look like an OEM bag with the grey FJ. I'm already touring with it and I get compliments on my bike and cases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zvez Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 That's a beautiful setup!

advman Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 That's a nice set up I see you have Givi tankbag fitted can you tell me what model that is and I presume that's a quicklock set up? Ta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philkin Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Making sure I understand. You had the Yamaha Tail assy. and removed the Yamaha plastic base. (It had two Large Bolt in the rear plus the four smaller bolts) then replace it with the Givi universal adapter using for 4 longer bolts replcing the smaller four. The two Larger bolts place back without the Yamaha platform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beo Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Yes, the last two steps, installing the Yamaha plastic base and 4 screws was not done. Instead I put on the Givi plate with longer screws from my local Home Depot. After 1000+mi, half with a passenger leaning on it, it's been rock solid. BTW, It's much easier to convince people to passenger on this bike if you can tell them that they can't slide off the back, especially after seeing you accelerate past other bikes. 8-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beo Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 The tank bag is the Givi XS306 Tanklock Tankbag (25L) with the Givi BF05 flange. I had to get a spacer (~10mm) and a longer screw for the front so it would clear the plastic forward of the tank. I was worried about abrasion issues with the magnetic bags because of the matte tank finish and my affinity for the occasional dusty trail. That tankbag was the largest one I could get to fit that space and it works really well, I even lean on it during a ride to change up positions. It will hold my MacBook Air and any of my tablets. My only issue is that it will not fit in my V47 topcase with my Lazer modular helmet which is a pain on day rides when I want to lock it all up. I'll get a smaller bag for the day rides.

philkin Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 That adapter comes with mounting hardware for tubular mounting. Square washers to fit into the grid pattern of the adapter and bent forms for the underside tubes. Did you use those or just found alinement with the threaded points on the Yamaha tubular places provided. Sorry for the need for more details. I am trying to come up with a way to switch adapters so I can change from large (46L) to small (30)trunk. Each uses the opposite system. I really only need the larger trunk for longer trips.

2damax Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 Yeah I agree. The bike should come with the rear rack as standard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
