Hey all,

I love going camping on my SV, and currently have Oxford sport soft panniers, and use a 60L LOMO dry bag strapped across the top. However, I am keen to head out a bit more this year, and the soft panniers can be a bit of a faff to unstrap and take off.

I am trying to find a way of attaching (and buying) some hard panniers- but as my bike is now 21 years old, it is getting pretty hard to find anything that fits! I would love a racking system and some suggestions on how to make this work. I have a welder, and some metal work experience, so fabrication is an option but need some guidance with designs, I am open to thoughts (or if you have some hard panniers/ top box setup you would be happy to sell, let me know!) thanks.
