[QUOTE="torch, post: 1469611, member: 1295"] Are you looking for an adapter between the stock rack and a Givi Monokey case? I don't believe Givi ever made one specific to the Gen 1 (they did for the Gen II -- the E228). I believe your only option would be to McGuiver a universal Monokey plate to your rack yourself, such as this one: [URL]https://fortnine.ca/en/kappa-monokey-mounting-plate-k553l[/URL] -- but I don't recommend that. The OEM rack is notoriously weak and many have suffered sub-frame cracking as a result. (The heavy duty Yamaha rack is not available for the Gen 1). As RossKean said, the SR346 is purpose-made to replace the OEM rack with a stronger steel one that comes with a Monokey plate. A much better option. I had that on my 03 for several hundred thousands of it's life and my son is still using it. It was used and abused with never an issue. Note that Givi has two different mounting systems -- the Monokey and the (confusingly similar) Monolock. The latter is aimed at smaller, cheaper cases intended for scooters and small bikes. To the best of my knowledge and belief, they have never offerred a Monolock mounting option for the Gen I FJR (there is an E228M listed for the later bikes, but I've never actually seen one in person).
