Does the 37/37 look assymetrical? Or are they Ok?.. I don't like the look of the 48/37, but some friends say that's the only way both side are Equal in lengh
+Stefano Rocchi do you notice the difference in length because of the exhaust.. Or do both sides look equal? When riding the bike do they hold OK? Any problems?
Just a tad in difference. It extends our maybe 1-2 inches more on the right side, but barely noticeable. They look very goos symmetrically. They hold great. Love them. I used to have the expandable vary bags on my old GS (11) and I hated them. Heavier, less capacity and hard to pack. This set is very practical, so far very durable and very well priced.
Hi, thanks for the video! I know it’s been a long time since you did this, but is there any chance you can remember what torx size the upper screw in the exhaust bracket uses? I am installing the same panniers, but all my torx bits are either to small or to big...
Do u have to move the indicators? I have seen on the manual that u have to do it. I don't know if it depends of the kind of technology (led or halogen).
Bike is gone, but when I measured the panniers from edge to edge and they are apt. 38". If I measure my hand;bears at the widest point (I had BMW hand guards) they are approx. 39". So, short answer is no,
Trystan Williams I can only compare with the vario bags I had on my prior GS. These are definitely much better. Look better and have more capacity. Compared to the BMW aluminum, they are probably comparable, but the GIVI are priced lower, better value. I like them in black (I believe not an option with BMW) and they mount in second. Love them so far...
Thank you very much for the reply I'm in the process of purchasing them myself now , Would you mind me asking what liters (Size) is the top box you have ? Thanks for all the help !
Trystan Williams It GIVI Xtreme sport bag. Fairly inexpensive. It's the 20 Liters version. I also have a Touratech rear rack bolted on the OEM rack. the tail bag sits on it and I used zip ties to secure it as opposed to the straps it came with. Very secure. Love it so far.
thank you Stefano. Already bought them. Very happy with the result, Wayne better than vario system.
Very nice. Also, your Omega Speedmaster Chronograph is a beautiful watch. You have good taste my friend.

They actually look fretting good. They mount vey close to the exhaust and the exhaust itself on the new GS is fitted more narrowly than prior years.
