Fitting full-size left system case

Grizzly · Mar 5, 2003

I would like to be able to use a full-size LH system case for longer trips using a dropped or lower silencer, but be able to revert to the high silencer & use the smaller case for weekends & day-to-day use. I know Motorworks sell a kit but does anyone have any other info. I don't want to change to alloy cases or similar at present. :confused:

I've seen it done a couple of times.The l/h RT/RS case mounts differently on the back of the pillion peg,so you have to chop that up or make a new one.I wouldn't bother myself,seems a lot of work to get a few extra litres of luggage space.What's wrong with the motoworks stuff?

How about using the deeper lids that you can buy for the standard panniers? I believe that they can be swapped readily enough.

anyone know how these larger lids work? do you drill out the hinge rivetts and replace them ? and how much are they ?

Mine had these fitted when I bought it. Everything you need is in my loft (got ally boxes now). PM me if you're interested in a deal.

Big lids

Spend about £140 + drill out the rivets + bolt on the new lids onto the "old" carcass with the supplied bolts, washers and locknuts = 6 litres a side extra.

The only slightly difficult bit is not having a drill + bit combination that's too long. Just need some extra inners then!

Now that we're on this subject, anyone got a set of 'City' lids they want to part with. Mine are the biggest variant and I would like the option of something smaller, sometimes. (No, the big ones will not be for sale, before you ask!)

Ta!
