1200GS/14 LC with Givi Rack and Outback Trekker 48L

[Cubster]

Help needed, just ordered a Givi Pannier Rack (PL5108CAM) with a view to mounting a 48L pannier on the nearside and a 37L on the Exhaust side - to keep some symmetry.

I 'won' a 48L outback Trekker on Ebay but have spotted that it appears to be for the right/Exhaust side, not the nearside - am I screwed or will I be able to mount in on the nearside? Can I reverse the mechanism?

Thanks for any help! Greg/

Looking at the mounting pic's on the net, it doesn't look like the mountings are 'handed'.
So you should be ok............... from what I can see.

Hope it works out for ya.

I have that set up. Same mounting frame and a 48L nearside. 37L offside. The frame is handed and so are the panniers.

Hi Greg,

Here are my boxes. And to confirm your handing problem, you can't swap the locking mechanism.

OK, I suspected as much ;-(

So I guess my other option is I run 48L and 48R, and see how that goes - I can always resell the 48R on Ebay at some point if its too wide...

Thanks All! Great Forum! Greg/
