Hi
Anyone that have SW-MOTECH EVO Quick lock side carriers on their R1250RS ? MOTECH PART NO: KFT.07.573.20000/B
I not often use sidepanniers and has Kappa Monokey that I used on my last bike. Kappa-monokey-side-case-panniers-k40-black

Wondering if they can be used without coming in contact with the exhaust on my 2021 RS ?

My wife had SW-Motech Evo side case racks on her '16 RS. She mounted Givi/Kappa Monokey cases. There was no contact with the exhaust.

The same racks are used on the Gen2 watercooled RS/R

I ride 2019 R1250GSA, 2016 Honda PCX150, 2013 Piaggio BV350
my wife rides 2020 R1250GS, 2015 Honda PCX150
Both proud former owners of a pair of 2016 R1200RS

I have the same on my 2016 RS - you can use standard Monokey cases as the frames sit away from the exhaust. I use Givi E21 cases as they are nice and narrow so I can filter in traffic where permitted. I could also use my Kappa K40 boxes if I need extra capacity.

Hi
Thank you both so much for the quick feedback.
Order the SW-MOTECH rack when the shops open after the Easter holiday.

Bought the SW-MOTECH EVO RACK.
Now considering buying TRAX ADV aluminum case system KFT.07.573.70000 / B
Anyone know of other manufacturers that have the same attachment on side cases to possibly buy other than cases other than SW-MOTECH?
See mouthing manual .

if you buy the SW Motech Evo quick release rack system then you can buy an adapter kit for most makes of pannier. This was the only way I could use my existing Givi Monolock cases. Givi only make a V35 fitting kit for the RS.

Wessie, I'm looking at the givi top boxes for my 16 RS, what adapter plate will I need and where can I find them locally here in the US? If you know.

thanks

https://www.givi.it/my-motorcycle/produc...tionals/sra5117 is the plate you need. Takes 10 minutes to fix on the bike. This is for Monokey - do not look at Monolock, these are for scooters and of lower quality and a less secure latching system.

or have you seen this? Givi plate & case for sale

There is a www.giviusa.com website so contact them for retailers or look on Ebay for "Givi SRA5117"
