Pannier rails for R80GS Basic

[Mad Hatter]

I’ve posted in the wanted section but asking here as well as I know it’s where us airheaders tend to lurk most….

…..does anyone have a set of pannier rails for an R80GS Basic they’d be willing to part with? These are different to R80GS/R100GS

Many thanks

They are also different, though similar, to those for the R80 G/S. When the Basic was a current model Hepco and Becker were the only source I think.

I know Hepco and Becker make a set for the basic but they don’t fit the original BMW cases. BMW still list the OEM frames as available so I’m going to try ordering a set….

Might also be worth checking out Siebenrock, I've found them very helpful in the past, moncase frames are listed but not your model .. might be worth an e-mail or call: https://www.siebenrock.com/en/luggage/luggage-carrier/3130/motocase-holder?c=664

Thanks. I’m keeping fingers crossed that they’re still available from BMW, my order was accepted today by ersatzteiler-motorrad so I’ll find out soon……

Alas no joy. The OEM frames are NLA from BMW. I’ve dropped siebenrock a note as suggested above

These are available from BMW but only in painted black and as individual parts not as a complete kit

Chrome ones are not available at all either as individual parts nor as a kit

The black frames that are available are :

46 54 2 300 021 - Case Holder Left - German Factory Stock - £158
46 54 2 317 408 - Case Holder Right - German Factory Stock - £113

You would also need to buy the fixings & fastenings but they are just standard nuts bolts and washers

That’s great if the parts are individually available. How were you able to check?

You sir are a superstar. If I can get the two hoops it should be easy enough to fabricate the rest. Thanks very much for digging into that for me.

Thanks for that. I’ve contacted the supplier I use here in France and they say there are also a couple more parts available (number 4 and number 5 below). Can anyone tell me what part number 5 is used for?

 

[nicholsonj2252]

5 is just a rubber gasket I believe

Where is it supposed to fit?

I’m really not sure

If it was me I’d be just getting the two pannier frames from BMW and then the Hepco & Becker rear rack , it might take a little bit fettling/adjustment to get them all to fit but I think the finished job would look good

BMW R80GS Basic Luggage Rack / Top Box Carrier - Black BY HEPCO & BECKER (1996) | eBay UK

Hepco & Becker. Not suitable are: Hepco & Becker Orbit topcase and topcases with universal adapter plate. The carriers are model-specific and only fit on the listed motorcycle on the mounting instructions.

Good news, I managed to find a NOS OEM rear rack to go with the pannier hoops that are still available from BMW so I’m all sorted. Many thanks for the help
