Guest guzzzi Posted May 8, 2006 Posted May 8, 2006 Does anybody know of a combination of Givi parts that will allow you to mount a Givi monokey rear rack or (preferable) a monokey rack and side racks to a 2001 V11 Sport Talked to Givi USA and they ran away screaming. Part numbers and actual experience would be nice...not "I saw something like that once in Munich in 1978 or was it 79?".
Guest Rich Fernandez Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 I am in the process of having the monokey side cases fit to my bike. You need to go to a person who can modify the the hangers to fit your bike. I happen to have such a person in Flagstaff. He previously modified my Cali and did an exceptional job. I purchased the E-41s with the hardware. He will modify the hangers next week and I'll post some pictures. I believe the job is easier if you have an existing MG rack. I have also removed the passenger pegs to accomodate the fit. I have eye-balled how I want the hangers situated on my V-11 and he will adjust the mounting points on the current hangers. The stock hangers have three mounting points. I believe we may use four points. In any case, you'll be able to see it in a couple of weeks. By the way the cases seem quite functional, if not elegant.
dlaing Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 Are you guys talking Wingrack or Tubular? I think the tubular would look better PS I seem to recall they had a universal tubular kit, but I just checked and could not find it. (Universal meaning: hire a welder...but I guess any tubular kit could be made to work. )
Martin Barrett Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 Guzzi 323 did a fit with the wing rack, did involve some cutting. I'm not sure if the pictures are still on line (not showing on work pc) but this thread covers lots of givi options http://www.v11lemans.com/forums/index.php?...topic=2887&st=0

Thanks a lot and good luck.
jenslh Posted May 13, 2006 Posted May 13, 2006 I have no idea if the V11 rear end is anything near the one on a 1100 Sporti, but I made the wingrack fit my bike and it wasn't easy - believe me Pictures and description here: http://www.guzzitech.dk/10/1100%20Sport/Givi/Givi.htm /Jens http://guzzitech.dk/english
