AltRider Hyperstrada Luggage Plate

Mmisciag · May 20, 2016

I just purchased the luggage plate from Altrider.com I can't wait to get it. I emailed Scott from Altrider because I had heard that the luggage plate from the Multistrada would fit hyper! I wanted confirmation. He responded that they were sending someone that day to the local Ducati dealer to be sure that it fit the 2015 model. Yes!

Currently they have silver luggage plate on their site for $108.00. A very good deal. I am going to purchase the Rotopax system in the future to mount to the plate. I figure it is a solid combination. My plan is to carry extra gas!!!!

Scott is great to deal with and could not recommend the product more. I'll post some pictures when I receive it!

I went with the givi plate instead, because it had extra support brackets underneath. I've heard of a couple of cases were people had their rear grab handles snap/break because of too much weight on the rear rack without support brackets.

Interesting. My plan was to not put a top case on but a rotopax. I wanted to carry extra fuel. I am in the middle of saving for the Bellevue Ducati mounts for Givi Trekker 33L cases. After that we go for the TKC80 tires.

Gonna need some dirt training. I am a street rider so life is going to get interesting soon.

This is my current set up. Got some custom 9" by 13" by 3/4" thick cutting boards and drilled them to fit. I was fed up with the stock bags and went with this setup.

Mounted with Wolfman Luggage Teton bags:

I planned on getting some better photos and putting them in the photo thread later.

This is not on my Hyper so it might not mean much, But on my TR650 I have the Altrider rear rack and have it setup so I can either put a Rotopax on it or a Givi tail bag.

I also have Wolfman pannier racks that I mounted plates to and setup for the small Rotopax bottles. I can then put the Wolfman saddle bags over that.

DOH I don't have a picture of the full setup but this might give you a idea.

Monocog007, I never thought of a cutting board! I am about to order the Ducati of Bellevue Givi bag mounts. You're making me rethink my plan!

Marc, wish someone made more options for the hyper' bag mounts. What you have on your bike looks great.

Seriously if you're capable of "DIY", buying everything you need for "Bellevue style" mounts can easily be had for under $100.

The only thing i will say about the cutting boards is make sure they're thick enough. Mine are stout as a rock at 3/4" thick. I think I went overboard, anything that's 1/2" should do.

Mmisciag · May 26, 2016

I'm thinking I would want the Givi bags. I would fine tune your set up and use the Givi mount kit to do the job.

Monocog007, what did you use for spacers behind the boards? If you have measurement of the spacers that would be great! I am trying to find either aluminum plate or the very think cutting board you are using. Thanks, Martin

Assuming your brackets aren't tall enough to interfere with the top handles, All i needed was a 3/8" spacer on the rear-most mounting spot.

I thought about aluminum but dismissed it due to cost and not having the tools to work with it. If you wanted to mount Givi cases, I can measure when I'm home to see if you'll have room to put the hardware on a plate the size of mine.

Mmisciag · May 26, 2016

I was thinking smaller plates made from the cutting board. Rethought the aluminum. I like the idea that it will be weaker then the bike and break off before metal will break. I would think from a strength standpoint it would be very solid.

I went onto Revzilla and bought the mount kits for Givi bags. I figure I will work with the plastic to cut it as small as possible. It still needs to be strong. I also want to make look nice when they are not on the bike. I'm not sure how that is going to work but I will take a few days to design it.

I got mine from here. They were like $50 shipped to my door. Perfectly sized, rounded edges, I just had to drill all the holes. They have all different colors too, which is perfect.

Mmisciag · May 26, 2016

That is tooooooo funny. Same place I had found. For the sizes I want should be under $30 for the pair! I didn't see that they had colors. That's great!

Great minds think alike! Let me know how it works out. I ended up mocking up on one side with a small plywood sheet, and transferring the hole patterns to the cutting board.

I used a countersinking bit to clean up the holes, and use flushmount M6 bolts. McMaster Carr has the correct lengths in stainless steel for a decent price.

I'm going to work on this tomorrow. I have some throw away Kmart cutting boards. I am missing the bags but from what I can see the Trekker 33l bags don't pass the the bottom studs by more than an inch. I should be able to estimate the placement of the bags. This should be fun.

Mmisciag · Jun 26, 2016

Okay, so it has been a while since I last posted. I have scraped the cutting board idea. I an not very good at cutting the material. With that said: here is what the Altrider luggage rack legislation oaks like on the bike.

Mmisciag · Jun 26, 2016

I have bought two more racks. I am going to cut them with a Dremel so that they can be attached to the mounting points for the bike stock bags. I still have to figure out the spacers.

this is my plate, cost about Â£10 for the paint, bolts and nuts, alloy plate was a piece of scrap and I had the tanklock ring from a previous bike.
I also have a 26L Givi back box that I can fit if I need more space.
