GSA Top box base brackets

[Roadrash Rider]

Does anyone know if the base brackets are available separately, real OEM and BMW don't list them as a part.

Any ideas?

Thanks

I'd like to see if you could purchase the LC brackets separately in order to swop the earlier box to the Later WC.

Seeing as the luggage is made for BMW by Touratech, can't you check their catalogue ??

Checked their catalogue and sent them an email, no response as yet.

Spare brackets would also need the locking clamp. Try to find a damaged box and cut off the base.
You could also make up a metal base plate to go under the rack and use Dzuz fasteners to hold the Givi plate down. Topbox locked to plate will stop access to the fasteners.

Ok email back from Touratech, they don't supply the brackets separately!

So anyone come up with a way to mount a Pelicase securely but quick release?

Done the p clip thing and bolts with a bracket, now looking for a way to take it off without faffing with undoing bolts and what not

Maybe provide a pattern to Mark Hooton (Cymark bike parts)??

Perhaps he could fabricate the mounting plate or add it to his line up of GS/A stuff.

He used to have a GSA he may not even need a pattern. Might be worth emailing him: [email protected]

You could also ask your local Motorrad dealer if they have any badly damaged (scrap) luggage you could rob the mounting plates from ?

FairPlay Pukmeister Cymark it the best bet

I used an old pillion seat frame to fix my Peli case too. Easy removal when not required. Wont work obviously if you have a pillion passenger.

You could use an ally plate under the rack with Dzuz fasteners from inside the Peli case. Not quite quick release but better than P clips and bolts.
Alternatively drill & tap the rack in ways that won't look messy and bolt from inside the case.

I think your best solution here is to buy some Ally boxes that fit a GSA LC and then get the bike to go with them !!

I used the stainless side rail mounts from a damaged o/s 1200GSA pannier I converted into a 'custom' topbox.

I cut the rails and made four mounts and they worked the same as the GSA topbox originals and they'd fit on any box with a flat base.

Damaged stuff doesn't seem to be coming up at the minute, but will keep my eyes open, thanks

This is the sort of thing. 1/4 turn to lock/unlock but not secure unless done from inside the box.
