Givi Trunk
09/15/15 6:56 PM

Givi trunk and mounting plate.
4 "highway bar" pegs mounts hold a 1.25" 316 stainless tube to the bike.
I had the 316 stainless tubes honed out to make a slip fit over the 1" 304 stainless tubes which i then had bent at a 4.75" radius bend but not quite a full 180 degree bend.

The reason i did it this way is so that i can adjust the trunk where i want it. Over the passenger seat, behind the passenger seat if i have a passenger, or slide out leaving only 2 tubes under my subframe.

i am still going to do some trimming of a few ends and paint most of the stainless black except for the slip fit areas.

Nice work, I think black will blend in well.

Can you post the lengths of the tubes and if you have the Givi mounting plate permanently attached to the curved tubes? Also, can you post a pic of the mounts used to attach the tubes to the bike? Looks like a great setup!
