ST1100 '98
Hi all,

New here and new to the ST1100 so excuse my ignorance.

I'm off to new zealand for a couple of years and secured a '98 ST1100 Pan for primary transport.

No top box with it, so want to get one installed, recommended is the ST1110 specific Givi E-190 Monokey mounting plate for the big cases, however, the seller says that NZ is dry on them and it could be 3-4 months to get one!

Has anyone used another monokey mounting plate that works for the ST1100? It needs to be monokey as I need something that can store 45Ltrs+

I could get one here in the UK prior to my travels but I haven't inspected the bike yet so really, want to get one out there.

Many thanks in advance for any assistance.

Jack

I'd think you could put a flat plate and use longer bolts into the 4 stock holes. Then just attach the generic Givi baseplate (monokey or monolock) to that by drilling a few holes as needed and bolting it onto the plate.

Yes I think some custom work could be necessary if I can't find something bike specific. Thanks for the handy input.
 
I made a mounting plate for my ST1100 from HDPE. It is easy to work (like wood) and should stand up to weather. I made it so I can swap either my Givi monokey or Yamaha top box. To use the Givi, I have to install 2 stand-off bolts (slide into slots) and the wedge-shaped "striker" at the rear.
 
Here’s a photo of what I use on my 1100. It’s 1/4 inch aluminum that bolts on using grab handle bolts. Lots of holes for bungees, cargo net and mounting anything else. 3591B2BD-7CB8-4031-B59B-7887D296EE28.jpegDD8DDBB5-47CA-42E9-A936-6F8E5D427525.jpeg61F4BFFD-5FC5-4991-907F-7B76CB83670D.jpeg771CEDB3-EC56-48FB-A43F-569A67B2671E.jpeg
