[QUOTE="Joe2Lmaker, post: 662421, member: 2663"] I bought a Givi SR357 tubular rack and tried to install it this past Saturday. It doesn't fit my 2006. The holes in the rack look like they line up with the rear subframe. I checked the spacers with a caliper and they match the dimensions in the assembly instructions. If I first thread the screws (through the spacers) into the the three rearmost holes, there is a large gap between the rack and the subframe where the two threaded holes are under the seat. If I start the two holes under the seat first, the others won't start without cross treading. Weird. I called Givi and I am the only person they have ever heard of having this problem. I'm not surprised. While I had 'em on the phone, I asked how to pronounce Givi. It's GeeVee (Gee as in "Gee Wally, that's swell!!" ) Anyway, if any of you Minnesotans with a GenII would like to help, let me know. I want to make sure the problem is the rack and not the bike.
