Full details

The GIVI 166FZ Rear Monorack Frame is an essential structural upgrade for owners of the Honda VFR 800 VTEC (RC46II) manufactured between 2002 and 2011, specifically designed for those who require reliable, secure luggage storage. This heavy-duty frame serves as the foundation for mounting GIVI Monokey or Monolock top cases, providing a stable platform for long-distance touring or daily commuting. While it offers excellent durability, users should be aware that the rack is not compatible with original factory side case holders, and specific additional plates are required for a complete setup.
