Have been asking for that quick removal carrier for over a decade. Finally. Thank you SW-Motech!!

[@JoeS97756]

Looking better and better as the issues with the OEM cases continue to grow. I like how the side case bracket pops off so easy and how the panniers load from the top.

[@SW-MOTECH]

Thank you for your positive feedback. We are happy, that you like our products. //KS 😊✌️🏍️💨

[@jjnewman65]

Nice one my German friends. Food for thought. I will be looking into luggage solutions next year. I’m not sure what way to go as yet. The OEM panniers look decent. I will not rush in. I’m not touring till April 2024 and I do have your dry bags which I could use anyway.

[@skaarj26]

The removable carrier is a smart one !

[@stefanomechella9648]

Very nice cases

[@JS-nf1sn]

You guys make the best luggage. I have your bags for my BMW R18 and Super Tenere. Top kit. You can save money by buying your stuff first (also less clutter).

[@kidluk]

There needs to be a 58L top box option as well

[@inspectorclouseau3880]

some nice luggage options there and i like you can take the bracket off when you're not using it

[@Captain-Donut]

🙏❤️ Love from Scotland ❤️🙏

Great luggage!!!! I'm sending this video to my buddy that just purchased a R 1300 GS

[@SW-MOTECH]

Hello FlashFlash-tb6vf, thank you for your comment and your great feedback. We are happy, that you like our products. // KS 😊✌️🏍️💨

[@inked-96]

Just a heads to anyone, always buy the waterproof tank bags. You'll regret it in a down pour if you don't.

[@inthesPhila]

Previous GS had plastic tank with weak nut inserts to hold on gas fill area and therefore weak tankbag mount. R1300GS has the aluminum gas tank and should hold the tank bag mount much better. Previous GSA had an aluminum tank.

[@TwoHawksHunting]

That was a good video presentation of your products. 8:13

[@SW-MOTECH]

Hello Michael, thank you for your comment and your positive feedback. //KS 😊✌️🏍️💨

[@jimthompson717]

Honestly, it was the Vario case system on the r1300gs, which prevented me from buying a new R1300gs Trophy. I had Varios on my 2017 1200GS. I have top loader aluminum on my 2022 Rally. Your bags and systems, look like a good alternative for the 1300.

[@SW-MOTECH]

Hallo jimthompson, thank your for your komment and your positive feedback. We are happy, that you like our products. //KS 😊✌️🏍️💨

[@gillianbrodie6807]

Thanks for the great video. I will probably get one of your tank bags, but would love to see some straps on them so it's easy to carry around when on and visiting places, so all your valuables can be with you without using your hands. The other thing I would LOVE to see from someone, is a locking topbox (hard or soft) that will carry two full face helmets!! So, (en route especially) we don't have to carry at least one helmet around with us when stopping for sight seeing. If you are motorcycle camping, unless you are already pitched up somewhere, the panniers will be full. Also, I wonder if you have designed locking panniers hard or soft, that will fit on the BMW panniers racks and connect into the central locking system where possible and even have a light. Are your seats heated at all? Thanks again. 😃👍🤗

[@SW-MOTECH]

Hello Gillian, Thank you for your comment and your positive feedback. We would also like to thank you for your product suggestion. However, our pannier systems are not equipped with central locking or lighting. Furthermore, our seat bench conversions do not have seat heating. //KS😊✌️🏍️💨

[@frankhumphrey6402]

Would be nice to see the pannier frame put back if only 30 sec

[@aviatorbehealilu3233]

I'm just about to order a new R 1300 GS - my first GS. And I already found a Dealer of my Trust and told him which Accessories from SW-Motech I want him to pre-install on my new bike. Like the whole Protection bars, Side and Top Cases, a few few other things. But I wasn't able to find anything about the personalized Seats. do I miss something on the website?

[@Motoscotty]

I have a new SW Motech day pack with the quick release ring on my r1200gs. Is it a straight swap to fit the tank bag on my new r1300gs when it arrives?

[@SW-MOTECH]

Hello @Motoscotty, Thank you for the message. You can find the right tank ring for the 1300 GS here: sw-motech.com/en/bike/BMW/R1300GS/2023/GG13/products/luggage/tank+bags/PRO+tank+ring/4052572258743.ht The following tank bags are available for the R1300GS: sw-motech.com/en/bike/BMW/R1300GS/2023/GG13/products/luggage/tank+bags/PRO+tank+ring/4052572258743.htm The installation instructions can be found in the Downloads section under the pictures.

[@JaySalvoUK]

Hi Guys, I've just this week purchased the Trax Adventure package for my R1250 GS and what made me go for your system was knowing if I change to a R1300GS I just need to purchase new frames. My only real question is regarding the lid retaining strap, Could they not be made on some sort of quick release so they can be detached if still wearing gloves? Also, I have the Yukon case which is excellent but ideally, I'd like the GS Pro tank bag, any plans to increase the selection of waterproof bags? Thanks Jay

[@SW-MOTECH]

Hello Jay, thank you for your comment. Thank you for your feedback and your product suggestions. Unfortunately, we are unable to provide you with any specific information at the moment, but we will be happy to pass on your suggestion to the relevant department. //KS

[@johnbragg2014]

These aluminum side bags look great, but wonder how much abuse the side mounting system can take in a low speed tip over?

[@SW-MOTECH]

Hello johnbragg2014, thank you for the comment. This always depends on the fall or tipping over an the underground. So far we have received positive feedback from customers. The cases have withstood it or have been scratched. with a fully loaded machine and rider, it can also come to dents depending on the situation.

[@MrC952]

Can you fit the pro side carrier and panniers with the oem vario top case ?

[@SW-MOTECH]

Hi, thank you for your inquiry. But that's not possible. OEM cases will not fit on our carriers. Sorry. /MJ

[@raymondho9323]

May I know when you Evo footrest will be out for the full black?

[@SW-MOTECH]

Hey, we already hav our Evo footrests for the triple black. Enclosed the article number: FRS.07.112.10302

[@travisboam9612]

Are the panniers key locked to the carrier frame? Or have a secure method of preventing theft?

[@SW-MOTECH]

Hey, we do have lock sets for our Luggage to prevent theft.

[@sandilemajiya7831]

How do you prevent for those cases not be stolen, and how do you make what is inside them to be protected cause I don't see any locks?

[@SW-MOTECH]

Hi, unfortunately, we haven't found a solution yet. As the system is strapped to the back of the bag together with the adapter plate, we haven't yet developed a suitable lock for this. We hope that we will be able to offer a solution for this in the future. //MJ

[@tadeuszradziminski4697]

Do this removable side racks can be fitted to a motorcycle equipped with OEM panniers mounts?

[@SW-MOTECH]

Thank you for your comment. We always develop and test our products on the standard version of the bike but not with additional (OEM) accessories which can be mounted optionally. That's why we cannot guarantee the compatibility of both articles. // JK

[@TheLoathsomeCowboy]

That top case, cantilevered off the back of the bike, what’s the recommended maximum load?

[@SW-MOTECH]

Hello Simon, thank you for the request. As a top case (regardless of the carrier load) you have a maximun load of 5 kg. As a side case (regardless of the side carrier load) you have a maximun load of 10 kg. If you have any further questions, please contact us again. 😊👍🏼🏍️💨

[@alanedward6577]

Do these panniers fit with the BMW vario top box ?

[@SW-MOTECH]

Hello @alanedward6577, Thank you for your comment. Our carrier cannot be fitted with the original BMW carrier.

[@cpuuk]

Top Box rack- is that the OE top carrier rack that comes with the bike?

[@SW-MOTECH]

Hello CPU UK, thank you very much for your comment. In order to mount our top case on the R1300 GS, you will need our luggage rack, which you can pre-order at the following link. sw-motech.com/en/bike/BMW/R1300GS/2023/GG13/products/luggage/luggage+racks/ADVENTURE-RACK/4052572260616.htm //KS

[@RichDunn]

Nice quality, as always from SW Motech. But for the love of God, can someone not make a quality ABS plastic pannier (lighter weight, less cost) that is "TOP" opening, for practicality?

[@SW-MOTECH]

Hi, Thank you for your feedback. We will keep it in mind for further projects, but for this one it was practically because you can use one pannier as side case and as topcase. The inner bags ensure greater convenience in use. / KF

[@RichDunn]

@@SW-MOTECH Thank you for taking the time to comment, much appreciated. Adventure riders know that nothing is more practical than a box with a lid on top of it. But their bikes are already heavy enough without luggage, and few use their $30k Adv-Tourers off-road, so lighter-weight top-opening touring panniers, which are more watertight and less prone to flexing than side-openers, and more secure than soft luggage, would be ideal - and would be a genuine unique selling point to any pannier manufacturer who realizes that gap in the untapped market. Make it and the buying public will respond positively...

[@SW-MOTECH]

Thank you for your honest opinion, we will keep it in mind. / KF

[@RichDunn]

@@SW-MOTECHI appreciate you listening. Thank you.

[@roncoleman8351]

The Vario luggage case mounts come with the premium package selection. I’m not sure if I can remove that from the selection. If not, will your luggage racks still fit around the Vario mounts even if not being used? In other words, does it matter if the Vario mounts are there or not?

[@SW-MOTECH]

Hello Ron, Thank you very much for your comment. Unfortunately, you can only attach our panniers to our pannier rack. And we have only tested and developed our pannier rack on the original series condition of the R1300 GS. //KS

[@roncoleman8351]

@@SW-MOTECHThanks, but I think you misunderstood or I didn’t phrase my question correctly. The BMW Vario mounts are part of the premium package on the GS1300. Do I need to remove the Vario mounts in order to install your pannier rack? The model in the video looks like a Triple Black. If so, what did you do with the Vario mounts before you installed the SW Motech pannier rack, or did you not need to remove them? Or maybe this bike didn’t have the Vario mounts at all?

[@SW-MOTECH]

Hey Ron, if you want to mount our PRO side carrier or our Adventure Rack luggage carrier on your R1300 GS, you will have to remove the original carriers from BMW. Thank you for your understanding. //KS

[@jjnewman65]

Could you please put these products on your uk website with detailed photographs and prices. Thank you 🙏🏻

hmm looks like the crash bars don't have to be removed for valve check? True?

[@SW-MOTECH]

Hello EricS977, thank you for your comment and your associated interest in our Products. To be able to check the valves on the boxer, the crash bar must be removed. Thank you for your understanding. //KS

[@RabidHorse]

Hey @SW-MOTECH, a headlight guard would be good. Only one available now is Touratech (very ugly) and the bmw one. BMW one is on the right track as it protects from stones and such. Touratech would let too many stones through! Make it happen!!

[@SW-MOTECH]

Hello rabidhorse, Thank you very much for your comment and your product suggestion. We will be happy to pass it on to the relevant department. //KS

[@RabidHorse]

@@SW-MOTECH excellent. Thanks for the response. Just make sure the headlight cover is a solid piece so it doesn't let road dirt and stones through. Like clear polycarbonate or whatever is durable :)

[@ericaworthington2675]

The seat covers are pretty but shaped wrong as they're higher in the center than the edges. It should be like a tractor seat where it's lower in the center and higher on the edges

[@SW-MOTECH]

Hello ericaworthington2675, Thank you for your comment and your interest in our bench conversions. As we only convert the benches, the original bench always dictates the shape. We do not build new benches. Thank you for your understanding. //KS

[@1JRW1]

A headlight protection that completely masks the horrible oem design will be very nice. Or a completely new headlight will be even better .

[@ryanmalone2681]

You guys should steal from Mosko’s tank bags and offer a water bladder and more organized t’s k bag storage options. Also, an entire rack just for your soft panniers isn’t great. Both Mosko and LoneRider are better. Finally, having to purchase a new rear brake lever to accommodate the extender is a bad design and there are better out there that don’t require it. Seems like you don’t employ anyone who’s riding the GS off-road.

[@garyflowers9]

I fitted your crash bars to my GS 1300 and let it fall on the right hand side onto a flat concrete surface. The cylinder head struck the ground and was damaged because your crash bar does protrude far enough on the right hand side to keep the cylinder head from damage. Very poor design. I would not recommend your product for this bike and I am amazed that you sell such a poorly designed product. Contacted your customer care who basically told me to go away.
