Bag mounts

I've got a 5th Gen with a staintune High mount. I know that GIVI wingracks and be "encouraged" to fit. Anyone else have experience with other mounts (SWMOTECH or others) that'll fit with a highmount?

I hope some folks start responding because I have the Staintune pipes as well and never even considered the difficulty of using my soft luggage etc..being enamored so fully with the sound.

mine is 04' though....

Well ,the Givi tubeular mounts require the top mount as well, ( I guess this is the "new design") which I really didn't want. But I looks as though with spacers, it'll all fit together. The new PL257 frames mount at the footpeg bracket, a bar between the two by the license plate, and connect to the FZ257 top case mount. There is no upper mounting other than the FZ257 top case mount bracket. Once the top case mount arrives (and although GIVI says you must mount the FZ brackets before the lower ones, I of course, didn't order them) I'll let you know how it goes.

Just bought the SW-Motech side racks and GIVI E21. The side racks are a very nice fit and they have a quick release for taking them off. They look quite nice. The only problem is with the side bags, I'm going to have to get use to clearing the tops of the bags when I get on the bike.

I don't think I could use the SW motech mounts with the high staintune on the bike. I would have, if I could have...

Of course, if you tell me you have a high pipe, I'm gonna be real disappointed.
