I receive orders from people who have already purchased a Givi trunk without realizing the difference between the two systems.
Generally speaking, monoLOCK trunks are intended for scooters and require the plastic mounting plate that comes with them. If the mounting plate is attached to the stock rack you end up with two layers of flexible plastic. Even attached to a metal rack they are somewhat flexible. There is a metal kit for MonoLOCK trunks but it's hard to find and is more expensive than the monoKEY kit.
MonoLOCK trunks may be a bit cheaper but don’t provide the firmest attachment.
MonoKEY trunks can be attached directly to a metal rack by using the SW-MOTECH mounting kit (All metal). This provides a much more solid set-up and removes all the flexible plastic parts. It also leaves a cleaned rack when the trunk is removed.
