OEM panniers where from ??

BMW F650 GS 2004 TWIN SPARK.


Ive just recieved a set of pannier frames from motorworks . These are just two bits of tubing that bolts under the exhaust..Ive rang them and they will take them back "no problem at all" they said..So my question is, What sort of panniers fit these frames. Apperantly these are origonal frames from BMW that fit the GS.
The reason I ask is I cant find any to fit these frames...

Yup..you also need two mushroom bolts that fit in the plastic panels in the circular blanked off places.

I'll have a look for pictures.

Wise move. The BM panniers are fragile too...
