The Rotund One
If it aint broke,,, I'll fix it 'til it is...
This is a rare piece here in the U.S. Our U.S. distributor for SW-Motech does not stock this rack. They can order one for you if you want to wait... They told me 2 months last summer. They opted to stock the less expensive steel rack for us.

Open the "top case adapter hardware" box in the above link for pricing and availability. I would direct you to the Super Tenere rack rather than the Triumph Tiger if they stocked it... :
This rack bolts in place of the factory plastic rack and allows a series of insert plates to be attached (with 3, quarter turn fasteners) that are model specific for a ton of different top boxes. Givi, Hepco, Shad, Trax and more including the popular Pelican cases are supported. This is particularly useful if you have more than one top box. The insert installs in seconds, the the box attaches to the insert using the box of choice's factory mounting points. Hard to explain but, really easy to use.
I got this one used from Canada last summer and it is a black one. I have 3 different brands of boxes and was planning on using the Happy Trail top box with the Pelican mounts to match my panniers. The Pelican set up will fit almost any flat bottom case and to me it was way more versatile.
To me, the main upside is a flat rack with no mounting hardware sticking up from the rack (like the steel rack, Altrider, Etc...) and with the insert plates, I could mount whichever case I wanted to.
It comes with all the hardware and instructions. It also comes with a Givi Monokey insert plate and that means the current Givi Trekker boxes will fit.
$150.00 shipped to the lower 48.
There are two flaws that I pointed out in the pictures. 1st, a bolt got loose in the box on the way down from Canada and scratched it, it's minor but noticeable and 2nd, the 1/4 turn screws are worn but plenty useable.
The top box in the pictures is not included.
Thanks!
