Old style Oxford Sports panniers are better (bigger capacity and easier to fit to an SV) than the Humpbacks and cost less when they come up for sale on ebay. Get searching chappy.

Yer there really cool don't know if I can justify keeping them when I will only have TPF+T insurance... So they might find there way to the for sale section, but as they are in mint condition with no scuffs I would be wanting top $.

Porta-pottys rawk!

Most folk keep the boxes and sell the fixing kit when you get rid of the bike for summit else. Then buy a new fixing kit for the new one.

If you want to start going places that set up is the best available.

GIVI boxes ain't just for christmas........them for life!

Can't say there's anything difficult about fitting the humpback ones TBH.

But yes, the only reason I have the humpback ones is to clear a high-level exhaust.
