Wolfman Tank bag
I have the full size "Explorer" version I bought when I had the KLR. It is very good quality. Hopefully, i'll be able to fit it to the GS.
I have to admit though that I find that the tankbag gets in the way when riding off road. I can't seem to lean forward enought without hitting the bag with my knees or thighs.
I'm sure you'll love the Explorer lite.

Hi Annie & welcome to the site
I can vouch for the FAMSA tank bag, got one for the 1200, great piece of kit very well made, & far better value for money than the rip BMW one.
+1
The Famsa is superb quality - buy from winding roads for great service too.

Winding Roads are showing as out of stock on the Famsa bags. Are there any other UK retailers? Google is not proving helpful.

Winding Roads are the only importer of FAMSA bags in the UK. Like almost all Italian factories, FAMSA close for the entire month of August, which can cause problems with supplies.
Works out at about £30 more than Winding Roads charge, but the German importer has 3 left if you're in a rush.

Cheers.
No great rush, I suppose. I'll hang on and wait for Winding Roads to get more back in stock.

soft bag
I have been searching for a soft side bag for 800 however could not find any convenient one due to exhaust position. Vario cases are pretty expensive (total 950 Euro as including all brackets, monolock, bags and mounting) in Turkey. Furthermore it is not possible to find all options you mentioned here in Turkey which means vario cases are best option (except givi which I do not reaaly like) .
Finally please help if you could.
Thanks in advance

ST bags on a GS?
Hi all,
might seem a strange question this but does anyone know if its possible to fit 800st/s panniers to the GS. Either straight on or with a bit of farkling, I can see the exhaust might be in the way. Any thoughts?

BMW "Sport soft bag" attaches to Vario plate?
I was just looking at the UK accessories catalog
http://www.infar.co.uk/tim/gs/F650-800GS_accessories2.pdf
And saw the "Sport soft bag" ...
Anybody know if that has a "hard" sub-plate for mounting to the Vario adapter plate or if it just gets tied on with bungies?
I'm getting really indecisive when it comes to luggage here... even my wife the consummate shopper is starting to say I'm making a big project out of this?
Thanks,
Jim
