GSA rack and pannier frames on a GS

[Thunder]

Well it's been mentioned the other way round for those with the GSA wanting to fit the vario panniers but not seen anything about it when the GS is concerned.

Picked up the rack from Fleabay and the frames from a fellow tosser and now all I need is the luggage.

The rack is a lot lower than the standard GS one and it seems to me a lot stonger as well. Just waiting for te Hepco and Bcker GSA plate to get the top box fitted.

Anyone know the torque specs for the brackets on the rack that clamp on to the luggage carrier of the bke?

That was all of a few weeks ago at East Mids, you know me by now always changing, might have another one in the near future who knows.

Ms Cheeks found the can slighty deafening and it pays to keep her happy, she ended up singing all the way home to take her mind off it and I've no off switch on the Autocom

I've trying to find somewhere to buy a handlebar/crossbar pad similar to the one you have fitted.
Where did you get yours?
Or is there anywhere you could suggest?

I got the pad from a member of the forum who had it in the for sale section.

The brace itself was from Wunderlich although Touratech also have a version.

Might be worth posting a want add in the For sale and wanted section.

Hepco rack arrived !

Just got the Hepco Becker 1200GSA rack for my topbox today, fitted in 5 minutes and rock solid.

Just in time for the weekend and the pizza delivery job.

Now all I need are the BMW panniers.
