When I sold my last GS back to BMW they didn’t take the panniers and don’t want them (I suspect as they’ll want to sell the new owner some new ones). This leaves me with luggage that I can’t use and can’t be bothered to try and sell as they have locks for the old bike key which obviously I don’t have anymore.
I don’t know if the locks can be replaced but if they can it would be a cheap way to get luggage. Note, they don’t come with the top-box mount I’m afraid, that stayed on the bike.
The panniers and top-box have been brilliant, seeing me all over Europe and have not leaked once. They’re the expanding type. In the pics below they’re compact, but easily expand.
Yeah I’ve just spoken to BMW as I’m getting luggage for the new bike and they say they can re-do the locks whilst you wait.
I’ll go check they’re not locked currently (would complicate matters a little) and will stick em on eBay. They cost a fortune new (somewhere around a grand) and the new ones need funding so on they go!
if you didnt want them still and they are free id be intrested. need some panniers for my fazer i know its not a bmw but i could rework it to fit like i did with my ntv’s panniers =]
Actually I do, I’ve been too busy to list them. £300 seems common sale price on eBay for two piece sets. I’ll do the three piece set for £250 seeing as they’ll need the mounts and new locks if you want them to lock.
Sounds good - done deal. Where are you based? I live near Old Street but I’m away with work at the moment - can I pick them up in a couple of weeks when I’m back? If you want to text or call me to arrange details, my number is 07843 281801.
Thanks,
