Motorworks ??

Yes, thanks, but I was hoping to find one a bit cheaper. Same bracket for R850GS, R1100GS, R850R, R1100R, if that helps anybody to find one

I've got a pair of the ones that are meant for the full OEM luggage, but I don't want to split (they'll go on ebay one day when I can be bothered and probably won't sell individually)

You're welcome to the set though

EDIT....I've also got the other type, the ones you're after, which I was going to stick on to replace the luggage type, but the same logic goes for those.....a single one plus the rests/rubbers is no good to me so I'd want to sell the pair complete

 

[Cook1e]

Hi Mr F, I wasn't aware there were 2 types - I thought the luggage fitted the top end of the bracket, on the rubber boot (no. 4 in the diagram).

Anyway, I understand about splitting a pair. Motorworks want £45 for the single bracket I need, but this would be too cheap for your pair, so I'll wait for now, thanks.

THIS is the 'other' type......TBH, I'm not sure if it's a luggage related change or an age related change...my first GSA had the type you want, my second has the type in that linky

I almost choked when I just saw the price of the ones in that link BTW

EDIT...I just saw the small print on the description, which makes sense.....

If you mount the rack system for the Aluminium-Bags, you also have to install this special foot rests, if you want to take a passenger on board.

One type (the one Cookie wants) fits with system panniers, the other with Aluminium boxes.

Cookie - let me have a look in the garage, I may have a spare...

Ah, yes - the "other type" must be in the ally pannier mounting kit.

I came off on some diesel a few weeks ago and smashed the aluminium part of the bracket - trying to minimise repair costs. The bike got off light - screen, indicator, head guard, Givi rack. I mashed my shoulder and ribs pretty thoroughly and only been able to wield spanners since last week. First time out on the bike since the crash yesterday - bastard well hurts to ride, but I feel better now

If you need the bracket to get you and the missus back out again quick, let me know.......you are welcome to use mine until you can get a replacement, then you can send me mine back

You are all top-notch gentlemen and I thank you kindly.

However, in the best example of karma I have seen for a while, Colin (Colban of this parish) has found one which he will post to me. The same Col to whom I donated a couple of surplus batteries a couple of years ago.

I love this place!!!

A lovely happy ending... Except your ribs and shoulder of course.

Diesel caught me out a few winters ago going to work at 5am.

I've a spare rear mudguard if you need one..

Mend soon.

Bike fixed (apart from some nasty gravel rash on the screen - see below), ribs now OK and shoulder mending slowly. Out for a bit of a run last Friday, all is well again. Thanks to Col for the bracket

Thanks for the advice and good wishes and thanks to Dave for the offer of a mudguard - not a mark on my mudguard, but indicator replaced, footpeg bracket replaced, head guard filed and re-painted. Just gravel rash on the (very expensive) screen remains
