Hi,
I have just bought a new Givi Trekker Outback 42L from an Ebay shop. It should arrive today It comes complete with an SR684 rear plate which is said to fit on 04-12 GS. The box weight capacity is 10kg, but I have just searched the internet and it appears the rear plate weight capacity is 6kg. so I can only carry 6kg minus the weight of the top box right? I then saw something on a BMW site saying if I add an M5 plate the weight capacity of the plate will become 10kg. I am a bit confused, why do I need to fit 2 plates? Can anyone explain?
