Instructions (continued)

Insert the spacers into the grab rail bolt holes (the longer one towards the front of the bike). Then hang the monorack arms on the grab rail using the new bolts from the fitting kit. Be careful not to drop them against the bikes bodywork to avoid any risk of damage to the paintwork. Bolt the front of the arms to the seat clamps, but do not fully tighten any of the bolts yet to allow for any final adjustments.

Now you should fit the top-plate onto the end of the monorack arms. Each bolt goes through the plate, then the arm and finally a nut is fitted underneath. You may find that it is tricky to get the bolt holes to line up. If you can't move the arms enough to get them to fit try loosening some of the other bolts to get more movement.

When everything is bolted together, slowly tighten all the bolts making sure that the top-plate remains level and straight. Also make sure that you can remove and refit the bike's side plates and seat without having to undo any of the monorack bolts.

When you are happy with the final postion and all the bolts have been tightened you can put the plastic plugs into the bolt holes on the top of the top-plate.

Now that you have fitted the monorack you can easily attach any Givi top-box (or Kappa box for that matter) to the plate. Just slide the box onto the runners at the front of the plate and press the back of the box down until it locks onto the spike at the back of the plate. You should hear it click into place when it is attached properly.
