Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between KRA and KR?
The KRA is made of anodised aluminium instead of painted steel: it weighs less and does not rust, even if the motorbike is left outdoors.

Is the plate included?
No. The KRA5117 must be combined with a Monokey plate (KM5, KM7, KM8A, KM8B, KM9A or KM9B), which must be purchased separately.

Is it suitable for the 2021 R 1250 R?
Yes. The KRA5117 covers the R 1200 R and R 1200 RS (2015-2018), the R 1250 R (2019-2025), and the R 1250 RS (2019-2022).

Can I use a Givi top case?
Yes: Kappa and Givi share the Monokey system, so the plates and top cases of both brands are interchangeable.
