R80GS Basic Pannier Frames

[GT3North]

Hey Guys,
My build is almost finished. Looking for a set of pannier frames for the R80GS Basic model.

Any suggestions?

wow, you've been busy! that looks marvelous just perfect

I dont know about Canada but in europe the pannier frame for the basic are still available new. I just bought a set for mine, although the side frames are in black and the rear rack is chromed

Check out Hepco and Becker .. I have an R80 G/S with the same set up as you have there .. single seat and rack, I fitted a set of Hepco and Becker panier racks for the R80 G/S paris Daker .. you'd need to doubel check the fitting but mine work well with that set up: https://www.hepco-and-becker-luggag...MW-R-80-GS-Paris-Dakar-1984-1987/650606-00-01

I had some hepco and becker ones originally, but you can only fit hepco and becker panniers to them, not the OEM BMW plastic ones of the same era as the bike
