Panniers

[John Armstrong]

Had some of the BM GSA ones, but wanted some that would fit the F650 and GSA. So sold them. Hoped to get the Trax ones, but ............... With a trip to Scotland this weekend needed some so got the H & B Aluminium standard ones like these: http://www.ukgser.com/forums/showpost.php?p=1090480&postcount=16 . But, when me and SWMBO are on we're wedged in, and she has no option of moving here feet and the backs of her thights are resting on them. Getting on and off is a real palaver and I've almost put my back out as I can't get the right leg to swing over when getting on / off

So is there an alternative, besides going by car that gives the pillion a decent amount of foot / leg room, and isn't going to cost me a fortune in chiropacter bills?

PS can guess the obvious answer is to get the GSA tin panniers again, but doesn't fulfil the 650 and GSA hope.

My wifes happy with the foot room she has with the Jesse Safari bags, They were slightly cheaper then the stock Bmw cases and had tone more room.

Thanks for the idea, unfortunately I can't see your photo

JUst to clarify, I can't do the drop kick type of getting on / off the bike, not flexible enough I think

What are the TT Zegas like for pillion leg room and general space for swinging the leg over (in getting sat on a bike manner)?

Sorry hope this works better
