Title: Difference between an 09 and a 10 Monster 1100? Post by: wizzobeer on October 17, 2011, 06:52:04 PM Hey all, I just picked up a 2010 1100s and wanted to kit it out with some side bags and a luggage rack. I tend to do a lot of long distance touring and need to carry clothes, tend, sleeping bag etc. I have been using a Bandit with the Givi 21 litre hard bags and a 40+ litre duffel strapped on top. I see Givi makes a soft bag support for the '09 M1100, but not the '10. Can anyone explain the difference between the two years, suggest a super luggage option, or explain why the 09 rack wont work?

Although somewhere back in the dusty recesses of my memory I remember Raux talking about changes to the rear subframe assembly..... Calling Mr Raux to the white courtesy telephone please......

Post by: thought on October 20, 2011, 06:04:04 AM i know that there is a difference btwn the 09/10 subframe and the '11+ subframes as the '11+ subframes allow the fitting of the passenger grab handles. never heard of any diff btwn the 09/10 ones though.

Does anyone have any first hand experience or other options for bags other then the Ducati ones. I would really like a top rack for my larger bag. (Tent and other important camping gear goes inside.)
