Review on GIVI 14 16 1190AD Monokey Mounting by Seth Gibbons

The plate is very well built, nicely finished and fits my 2020 KTM 1290 SA-R perfectly. The box also includes matching hardware and brackets, although it does contain some plastic bushings which I will be replacing with aluminum bushings in the future. In general, it doesn't seem like the most powerful off-road device to me. But I have an objection that I should mention. In my opinion the position of the plate pushes the top case assembly behind the rear axle more than necessary (1-1 1/2 inches). After a test ride with the top case loaded to its maximum allowable weight (22 lbs), the bike produced increasing tank shake or wobble as speed decreased, but only between 50 and 19 mph, especially with one hand off the handlebars. I went through all the possible causes and worked for two weeks without finding a solution that finally came when I left the top case at home: no more tanks but I did many tests and in all cases the situation was completely manageable but me did not stop being afraid because the result was unknown. Could I stop using it or put less strain on it for that reason? I don't believe. Riding at a reasonable speed and with a fully loaded bike will help.
