The 2016 Gilera Fuoco 500 is not an Mp3 but it has similar mounting issues for side storage. You dont want to block access to the under seat storage so straps over the top of the bike are a no-go.

You might consider some soft side bags from CycleGear then attach them to the pillion grab-bars at the top and then together underneath with something that is resistant to engine heat. Either way its going to make the bike much wider so filtering wont be possible in traffic or lights (if its legal where you are).

I mounted a couple of these on my bike via existing strong point bolts so I have a solid, reliable spot to secure bungie cords or straps onto for luggage. ttps://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006WNUQ7G

Myself, I just got a large top-box and then bolted that directly to the tail mounting point on the bike. Didn't bother with the removable bracket mount (didn't fit anyway) as I will never remove it in any situation so nothing lost.

There are some suggestions on the forum if you search with the right queries.

The Fuoco is as much an mp3, as an mp3 500 is an mp3. Simply because for one market it is named as Gilera Fuoco, and for another market it is named as Piaggio mp3 500.

BTW I opted for Kappa K53@Monokey

a fuoco does have a slightly different frame as a mp3 front is allmost the same slightly different subframe for the headlight unitcover
