Hard panniers / Mounts
« on: August 15, 2011, 04:13:47 AM »
I have been given ( yes free, found @ the local dump ) :D 2 original bmw hard panniers,square shape,  rectangular reflectors and badges, ribbing beneath.

 I need 2 replacement top, 1 rear catch/latches and one carry handle. Are they available anywhere in the universe ( I'm in Australia ), i don't want to put none originals on until I'm sure i cant replace them.

Also, will BMW R65LS REYNOLDS Saddlebag Mounts R-663 NOS, fit these panniers and more importantly my 79 r65?

I'm not much help when it comes to advice about parts etc., but if you run into any difficulty with mounts, I just took the rack off my 81 R65 and I'm pretty sure they'll fit the bags you have. I'm not going to be using them, and I'm in Australia (Perth.) Let me know if you're interested in them and I'll try posting photo if necessary. Nice find, by the way.
