Description

Includes Givi fitting lugs and rubber vibration-reducing bumpers.

The top plate can be removed from the Alu-Rack by turning each of three quarter-turn Quick-Lock fasteners 90 degrees providing a cleaner look to the motorcycle when the topcase and topplate are not in use.

Givi brakelight kits are 100% compatible with this top plate.

If using a Givi brakelight kit with your SW-MOTECH top plate we recommend also purchasing the Quick-Release Wiring Kit for SW-MOTECH top plates (part EC.TT-00001) so that your top plate will still be removable after you wire up the topcase’s brake light!

Weight of adapter plate: 1.4 lbs

    Solid Product

    This adapter is very solid and feels very secure, nothing MM about it. Instructions are poor, would surely recommend that you check YouTube for hints on making the install go smoother. The Givi pannier is a snug fit and must be lined up exactly or it won’t go on, this is a good thing as once mounted it’s very secure.

    Terrible design - failed in less than 6 months

    mattie

    The three locking cams that secure your top case to the bike are not designed well. It caused my nice Givi top case to go flying down the road and nearly caused an accident. This is simply not a good product. It needs a total redesign to stronger bolts or less slack.

    SW motech top case adapter plate

    xxx

    It holds my top case to the rear of the bike with the quick release ability to remove the top case. Functional but some of the fastener hardware that comes with it is poorly chosen.

    Great for street riding

    onewheelwheatley

    I found it to be pretty easy to install but I am not a huge fan of the quick-release screws. I rode to an adventure ride and popped off my top case but left this adapter on. After a 100 miles of forest roads and trails I found that one quick-release screw had fallen out, another was loose, and three of the rubber dampeners had fallen off. Lessoned learned, take the few seconds to remove the adapter before riding dirt.

    Otherwise I have no complaints and love the functionality of quickly popping the trunk on or off as needed. I also like that it extends the length of the tail rack some and helps keep items in place when lashed to it compared to slippery metal tail rack.

    Works great, but instructions are lacking

    colbrt

    First off, as far as quality, fit and function, this would be a 5 star rating. It loses points because of a vagueness in the instructions as to how some pieces fit together. First time I installed, the small aluminum brackets that go on the underside that the quarter turn fasteners lock into, I had them flipped the wrong way. Long story short, the quarter turn fasteners did not lock properly and the adapter flew off (thankfully, before top case was installed.) I later saw another review that showed pics and made note of this specific issue and how to install properly… I ended up having to replace my first one, so a $47 lesson here. Once installed properly, though, this fits well, and I love the idea that I don’t have to leave my topcase or this plate on if I don’t want to. The product itself is sturdy and well made, including the hardware.

    Easy to install, solid mount.

    Jesse

    Bought this topcase adapter to go with the Alu-Rack mount for my 1999 CBRXX. I have a few GIVI cases around, and swap them back and forth between my other bikes. The mount (which I will review elsewhere) is super easy to install, and this adapter goes on and off with three quarter-turn adapters in a few heartbeats. Really cleans up the look of the bike when I do not need the top case, and makes for a olid mounting point for my existing GIVI bags when I need them.

    Zero complaints!

    Super easy and effective

    Rangerboy

    It does what it says and is easy to install. No issues whatsoever, but its hard to spend $40 on a piece of plastic. However, that’s just the way it rolls, and I doubt I’ll ever have any issues with this product.

    MonoKey Topcase Adapter plate

    CommuterDan

    Looks and works exactly as described
    installed in about twenty minutes
    Tip- I use clear silicone on nuts and bolts and screws prevents anything coming loose and its waterproof, easy to peel off if needed
    instructions are nonexistent so I have included pictures

    Very easy to install / remove!

    WaynoJ

    This is a great innovation for Givi-SW-MOTECH — an adapter that can be removed from the rack in 15 seconds. Three quick-lock screws hold it on, riding against a cam on the rack to hold it secure. The adapter plate is fairly bulky and cluncky looking, so it’s nice to be able to quickly remove it when not using the top-case. Well done!

    SW-MOTECH Alu-Rack Topcase Adapter Plate (GIVI)

    Luke

    I have been using the adapter plate now for about three weeks and I’m very satisfied.
    My only concern was how well it would fit my GIVI TRK 46L case. Well the fit is perfect like it was made by GIVI. The quick release feature is an extra bonus and the price was about half of an actual GIVI adapter.

      Serious safety issue connecting Quick Lock adapter plate to Alu rack. As other reviewers have noted, instructions are extremely poor. If cam lock devices are installed in wrong direction on Alu rack plate your top box will fly off. I lost a brand new GIVI 47 liter box due to this problem. Replace cam lock device with bolt and nylock insert nut using thread locker. Attach box with extra safety connection. Luckily no one got hurt by box flying off bike at 50 mph, but I am out the cost of the GIVI box. How about a simple installation video on You Tube?
