Givi Top Case With Factory Side Cases

[Grumpy Goat]

I still need the monokey mounting plate (such as M7) to go on top of the adapter plate, correct?

No. The Universal plate IS the mounting plate.

You simply clip that on to your RS rear rack as shown in the pictures, then place the V47 on top of that Universal mounting plate and click it into place. No more pieces to buy provided you have the RS rear rack.

My bike came with the BMW rear rack. If yours did not then Darrell pointed you in the right direction on the ADV forum for a second hand one for sale. You need that to be able to mount the Givi Universal rack on top.
