luggage suggestion

Possibly a dumb question (I presume very little these days) but is the mounting the same on a GS and the GS Adventure? https://www.motea.uk/set-alu-pannie...-box-rack-sticker-set-bagtecs-black-a295703-0
ive found these but im unsure if they fit ( jap crap so much easier to find stuff for lol)

I bought Varios from a fellow tosser, and bought the BMW bags to go in them from another. I have a big Givi topbox that lives on the bike.

I only fit the Varios when I need them, like I’m travelling. My wife & I use one bag each, and stuff like shoes goes in the topbox along with tools etc. I think the Varios would be a pain without the bags, though of course, you’d get more in them. Personally, I’d prefer them to not be variable, the mechanism itself takes up yet more space, and I don’t see the need for them to be narrow, I just take them off.

Where they really win is the attachment to the bike which is simplicity itself, takes seconds, and the bike looks “clean” without them, no scaffolding. I’m surprised Givi hasn’t come up with a similar solution.
I can't understand why givi or any of the other big brands haven't come up with something similar either, the only other ones I can see are the lone rider ones which use the original mounts, I've seen some varios on flea bay gonna keep my eye on them

And they are really solid and can be secured to the bike and locked from being opened.
 
Hi, I've had numerous iterations of the BMW adventures,1200,800,1250 and a tenere700. I forget how much i have spent equipping them with panniers and as a result I bought a set of loneriders from this site. They are extremely well made. There's a bit of setting them up to fit the BMW rails but once done are secured well. They will fit my Tenere 700 also with some adjustment. They don't corrode and when off the bike pack away relatively well as they are collapsible and dont take up much space.

But they don’t have central looking do they 😉
 
Hi All just got myself a Gs 1250 Adventure (21 plate) Im a bit stuck regarding paniers for it I would really prefare the rackless jobbies if possible any suggestions? TIA
If you DEFINITELY have the Adventure with the factory rial then just buy the Atacama bags linked to already.
Made by Mosko Moto for BMW. Probably the best soft luggage there is.
If you don’t have the frames, then their rackless (sorry - the 40’s are spoken for :D ) or Kriega OS-Combo drop on in seconds.
