Where are all the dolly birds? I have seen one,that was in a car park someplace and it looked like a very home made job with aluminum BMW style cases. Should imagine it utilized the rear sub-frame and rear footrest as fixing points for the frame.
I am presuming you are talking about something you can make yourself? as against a bought system.

not wanting to name names, but 7755Matt has a full wingrack on a universal mounting kit although I did offer fitting advice, so please don't burn me either!

i have seen a full givi side and top box fitted to a silver curvy that was for sale on ebay ages ago so they do sell them (colour coded too)

I've been doing a bit of diggin

SW motech do a rack (Part# KFT.05.058.100) for the curvy but finding a UK stockist is tricky

That'll allow you to fit pretty much any manufacturer's panniers

I'm a big fan of the hard luggage on the KTM, 100% waterproof at all times and the Hepcko & Becker plastic panniers are tough stuff

Alu panniers tend to bend out of shape if you drop your bike on them, but they do look much sleeker

TLW, I did see that last night, I was thinking about it but they are pricey. I can get a kit from the same people I got my givi rack and box from which is good :) I was wondering if there was anything cheaper though

phi-dan, have you got the details of the universal fitting kit? Are all wingracks the same? A wing rack would be great

The side cases I would opt for are
