I have a Givi plate married to the Triumph rack with Triumph's bits which
amount to a couple of bolts and a couple of T-shaped thingamabobbers that the
bolts bolt to.  Capish?  

Works well, looks a little wierd at first then you stop seeing it.

Yup.  Have one in older style Maxia but ya' gotta jiggle with it at
times.  Haven't tried the new Maxia I just received, looks like the mothership
landing on your rack.
