GIVI E251 Monokey Plate for use with flat or tubular style luggage racks only

I was not 100% sure which adapter plate to get for my 2022 Kawasaki KLR Adventure. I took the chance on this plate after doing a bit of research that did not provide perfect confirmation that this was the correct adapter for me.I needed an adapter to install a 58 L GIVI Outback Top Case. This fit the bill perfectly! When installing this adapter, I just skipped using the underneath brackets that are meant to hook over tubing. There are four holes in the factory plate that lineup perfectly with this adapter. Simply install using the four provided Allen bolts through those four holes. The bolts will just clear the plastic piece underneath with a bit of room to spare.Once installed, you can attach your GIVI top case and it will not block the factory panniers or the small compartment that holds your factory tool kit.

I bought this one expecting to get a mushy and flimsy piece of plastic however I was proven wrong! The plastic feels very high quality and sturdy and is overall an affordable product. I ended up using the M8A plate instead since it’s fully aluminum and it worked out but definitely going to keep this one in storage for when that one wears out.

After looking at the prices for bike model-specific monokey mounts, I opted to save almost $100 and use this universal kit. Some comments...First, don’t let the fact that this is a plastic base concern you. It’s very solid and mounts nice and tight to the rack below.Second, install is very easy. I took the factory rack off, taped the mount to it to position it where I wanted it, flipped it upside down and installed it.Third, I was concerned that if I could bolt it on, someone could just unbolt it and take my case. However, the position of the bolts can be placed (at least on my bike) where no one can get to it.Last, the nuts that are used to tighten the mounting bolts are self-locking, but I always opt for a second but to be on the safe side.

Work well

This thing costs me 250 dollars less than the plate specifically made for my 2013 GS Adventure. It looks nice. It's built like a tank and i had it installed in 5 minutes.

The supplied hardware was enough to attach the plate to my motorycle. I installed this on a Zero S with no problem. So far no problems after 5 months of usage and i have a Givi Trekker Outback (58l) attached to it. I always carry around 28 pounds and the plate has kept firm.

It fits my ST1300 perfectly. My GV v47 bag went on easily

Works great and seems well made. Definitely better than the mounting plates that come with the cheaper boxes. It bolted right up on my son's Versys 300x.
