Barry, I am still waiting for my Givi rack to arrive as its been on back order now for over two weeks. Just wondering if you received a 'template' for drilling the 4No holes in the back cover?

Removed the rear wheel and replaced the inner tube on my LML following a recent puncture. Total time taken half an hour at a cost of a fiver for the tube :)
Classic scootering isnt always perfect but you can fix most things on them yourself and the parts are generally a lot cheaper than for your average Jap or Italian Maxi / Bike :D
