Title: Givi bags
Post by: JDS on January 30, 2010, 10:52:46 PM

I havent had any luck finding hard bags and I have this set of Givi's laying in the garage I cant seem to sell for a good price. So I'm thinking about just cutting up the mounting hardware and making it fit the R65. Its going to make a wide rear end.

If the Givi's are the symetrical ones one would make a good top box.
Then you could split the set and sell the other as a top box.

I have always used soft panniers, The Aussie brand (I think) GearSac ones had a metal hook under the bottom that hooked over my BMW style pannier frames and kept them clear of the mufflers.
