Does anyone remove GSA side pannier racks

Reggie that really nice without the rack. I will finished my weekly commute to and from Wales so the panniers and racks can be removed for a good few months before I need them again. I think I will play around with that config.

Personally, I prefer to keep mine on even if the side boxes get used infrequently. It's extra protection for the expensive bits and a big plus for me anyway, is I find the bike easier to lift onto the centre stand by using the rear scaffolding. Taken off, it just adds to the clutter already adorning the garage. Looks better without but definitely a more practical choice to leave in place.
