Gear: SW-Motech Trax Evo conversion for BMW R1250GS Adventure Pannier Racks 4K

[@TheVolumeSociety]

Thank you so much. Made my world so much better. Almost bought the SW racks unnecessarily. 👍Great video. Cheers. 🇨🇦

Glad I could help!

Your panniers look good, Andre. And yes, I also like to pack from the top down. Günter from Nürnberg

[@PeakMotorcycles]

Yup, it’s just one of those little things I suppose, but it works for me.

[@enduromotorradtouren]

@@PeakMotorcycles Yep, since all tastes are different it is important to find out what's best for you. Thanks for sharing your experience. Günter

[@PeakMotorcycles]

@@enduromotorradtouren I find that if I have more stuff than space, I’d rather push it down from the top to close the lid than push the bike over 😉

[@enduromotorradtouren]

@@PeakMotorcycles Oh yes, that pushing over would be awkward. I like to pack top down as well

We have very similar bikes, I have the same Gs1250, also own a Triumph Bonnieville T120, and ordered a Honda crf300l

[@PeakMotorcycles]

I nearly got a Bonneville (800, not T120), but Mrs. Peak Motorcycles preferred the Duc scrambler 800. The T120’s are a great bike!

@@PeakMotorcycles my wife left me thats why I own 3 bikes, Gee I love those bikes.😜

[@PeakMotorcycles]

@@jackchristodoulou197 my wife rides the scrambler (though we also have a ‘one out, one in’ rule now. This is much like the previous ‘one in, one out’ rule except I was always better at the first bit! 🤣)

Hi, great video. I have been trying to figure out how to fit the SW-Motech EVO cases on my RE Himalayan which already has the Royal Enfield standard pannier supports. They look much like yours and a flat steel conversion kit such as yours should work for me too. I looked for your kit on the SW-Motech site but can't find it. Where did you buy yours, and what is the part number?

[@PeakMotorcycles]

Hi Per, Not sure of the part number, but it’s this: www.fc-moto.de/epages/fcm.sf/?channable=02099069640034383637333838343277&ObjectPath=/Shops/10207048/Products/%22KFT.00.152.10801/S%22&Locale=en_GB Looking at that URL, the part number might be KFT.00.152.10801 Yup, here you go: sw-motech.com/en/products/luggage/side+cases/adapter/4052572007785.htm The only thing that might be a problem is that the right (exhaust) side goes in and the brackets cope with that. Not sure how that would be on the RE racks. Good luck!

[@perkjellqvist2329]

@@PeakMotorcycles hi, and thanks for the instant reply 😉. I noticed the right side being different and the RE racks are the same on both sides. However, I have a small workshop and think I can modify it to fit. Thanks again.

[@MFCHRIS75]

Question : are your panniers both the same size left and right?

[@PeakMotorcycles]

No. The one on the right (exhaust) side is narrower. I try to weight them the same though, normally through putting my chain in the smaller one.

[@MFCHRIS75]

@@PeakMotorcycles thanks so much for the reply.

[@fredzuccarelli]

Any particular reason why you choose 2 different sized bags? I also have the gsa so the oem racks make both sides the same distance. Great video.....new subscriber!
