RE: Pannier Compatibility - 3

I’m that guy!

On my GS, Shad panniers.

Here's a bargain at $225 plus shipping. I did not go out and look at ours to make sure they have the correct back for the R and RS.

Our RS's bags are not symmetrical, there is a cut out on the right pannier for the muffler. I also have an S1000XR and have been curious about panniers for it (and paying attention to the differences). These look like S1000XR panniers, which are symmetrical. I am not too serious about XR panniers since the RS panniers fit it, meaning the mounting hardware is the same. Great price on these, though.

Lee,

By golly, yes, I see it now. You are right.

I went for the smaller version: SW-Motech Tail Bag ION-S; 7 liters can be increased to 15 liters - fits perfectly, enough for day-trip.

Hi Lee, do you have any idea what kind of modification is necessary to fit the sport cases (K1300) to a R1250rs?

Here is a few pic of mine. 20200318_155753.jpg - Bild entfernt (keine Rechte)20200318_155910.jpg - Bild entfernt (keine Rechte)20200423_140441.jpg - Bild entfernt (keine Rechte)20200423_140450.jpg - Bild entfernt (keine Rechte)20200423_140458.jpg - Bild entfernt (keine Rechte)

Hello guys
I’m interested in this thread because I have a set of panniers from my K1300S. I’m pretty sure I’ll be buying an RS in the new yr most likely a used one 2020.

It seems that I always find what I want out of state so my question is can the panniers be modified when on the fly? Like at a dealership or a private sellers home? Or is it more complicated. Also once modified can they be swapped back and forth between the two bikes.

I looked at the pictures but I don’t have the panniers handy to look at to exactly see and compare to my actual panniers. They’re in the attic for the winter. I assume if I find a bike I’ll fly into that area and ride it home that is why I’m asking. I would take my panniers with me.
Thank you all

I would say no, I bought mind already modified.

That is a really good idea. I’m being honest I’ve been thinking for awhile how to pull this off without ruining my panniers. Something so simple that I was overthinking. Thank you the shining the light on a great idea and a way to travel if I find a bike out of state. After the new year I’ll be looking a bit more seriously

Thank you.
Ben.
