My V9 Roamer (2018) is the sort with the longer seat. It already has side panniers fitted. I’m looking for a rear rack that would be suitable for attaching a Givi Monolock base. I like the look of the Spaan racks but the dealer photos always show them fitted to the V9 with the shorter seat.
This Hepco & Becker one is specially-made for the longer-saddle version of the V9 but it’s expensive and I’m not sure it will be compatible with the existing pannier holders. Has anyone tried this already? Can any other riders recommend a good make/supplier?
Yes, it’s a Givi topbox and I have the Monolock base for it. I had no problem fitting the Givi Monolock base to a similar, tubular-steel rear rack on my old bike. But if H&B is likely to be problematic, is there a make you would recommend?
Thanks Brian.
Yes, that one does look quite stylish. My Givi baseplate will definitely fit. My other question is whether it will fit behind a V9 with a longer seat? I’ll check the Givi website, anyhow.
Cheers.
