Re: MAKING PANNIER RACKS
Got me thinking (thats a worry so early in the year)and found these http://cpc.farnell.com/duratool/d00468/ ... dp/SG32901 as an alternative to `peli" cases.
anyhow :whistle: if you did made up a separate set of hoops and fittings ,I could buy your original,set they should fit no problem to my old Dr750.as my welding skills are zero.

The first set are ok but not great ,thats why i made a second set .I bent the hoops to suit the mounting position on the boxes ,so as the 4 mounting points fitted neatly inside the 4 corners of the hoop .Yes just remembered i have a set ofhoops powder coated in the garage ,i will look tomorrow and let you know B)

Lads I've been looking at this site for luggage mounting options,http://www.heavyduties.ro/home_page.html, along with the Duratool cases it would make for some pretty awesome and cost effective luggage!!
