Hi mate, I don't have the full access to apparently I can't access the "For Sale" section nor send PMs. I'm not too crazy about paying for forums so I'll probably keep it like that, you can send me an email to [email protected] with all the details.
Cheers,
Rami

I've used all sorts of panniers on a few different types of bikes... I currently use the BMW OEM aluminium panniers on my 2014 GSA LC. I like the look of my silver panniers and top box, the latter is perfect for my Arai Tour X4 helmet. I like that it's one key shared with the ignition and GPS. I like to take the panniers off to use as a seat and or a table when wild camping. I can easily add accessories to the outside of the luggage if I wanted but don't really need the extra fuel on this bike and it's easier to add extra capacity with lid bags etc. My luggage was covered in that 3M clear stuff to stop them corroding and so far so good. I like that if I drop the bike it won't go all the way over so it's easier to pick up (the headers help here too) and it won't damage the contents when the bike does take a dirt nap. I do use pannier liners or separate stuff sacks when needed as the contents can get covered in that aluminium dust shite if you don't.
Kappa Garda KGR46 (same as the plastic Givi Trekker) on a metal Givi monokey plate with OEM aluminium side boxes.
The lids of the side case's do open with the top box in place (only just)

If everyone on here thought like you there wouldn't be a forum

So a £1 a month is too much for you? Don't worry, everyone else will pay for you.......

Well guys, you do what you gotta do. Myself, never paid for a forum in my life, I've ran forums in the past so I know what goes on behind the scenes and I don't see the point of charging for it. It's not a matter of cost I just don't see the value.
If you guys don't wish to pay, you're not being forced to do so and if you wish to do so, I'm sure the admin will appreciate it.
Cheers
You have the choice to pay or not. If you however you use the accesible areas of the forum to get around aspects that would otherwise be restricted to paid-up users, I guess you therefore won't be concerned if you're referred to as a sponger

You're right on that one, yep. To be honest, my first comment
was actually a joke, wasn't expecting anyone to actually reply to that.Which btw, if anyone is looking to sale a pair and is willing to ship to Ireland, give me a shout!
But, yes... I understand where you're coming from and I'll have to agree with that.
Cheers,
Sponger.
Have various panniers on my bikes...
1150 Adventure
Jesse system - quality aluminium, top closure, moulded pannier on nearside for exhaust and locks at both sides. Top section doubles as a storage area held in by sprung frame. Panniers are on and off in seconds with secure lugs been inside the pannier.
Framework also blends into the rear frame of the bike and not as noticeable as other frames.
Been on the 'bike for 10yrs now and still in superb condition.
R100 GS
Metal Mule - quality aluminium, again top closure with moulded unit on exhaust side. On and off in seconds with 'lever' type locking system inside pannier.
Not had a lot of use TBH.
1200GSA
Standard aluminium boxes - don't think they'll stand the test of time - seem quite flimsy compared to the above.
