2009 GS500F Givi/ SW Motech Top Case Bracket and Plate

[Agiamma02]

Hi, I'm pretty sure I've found the answers I need here but I want to double check before I make a purchase.  If Givi says the bracket will fit an 04 GS500F, it WILL fit an 09 as well, correct?  And, same goes for an SW Motech bracket, correct?  Then, I figure out if I want a monokey or monolock case and buy the appropriate plate, right?  How'd I do?
THANK YOU!!!!

When I bought an E33 Monolock case back in 04 for my 02 GS the mounting plate came with the Monolocks but not with the more expensive Monokey cases.  All 01-09 GS500/E/F models have the same rear body work, don't know why same SW-MOTECH Alu-Rack wouldn't fit them all.  Might give twisted throttle a call to confim it.

I've got the SW-Motech alurack on my '04 gs500. I also have attached a 46L SHAD top case to it. I did have to drill two new holes in the alurack to fit the shad case mount on it (super easy since it's aluminum). I'm not sure if similar modification would apply to any other brands of top cases - just thought I would note my experience. As always, gsJack is right on with the info an recommendation to give em a call for clear specifics.
