    Good idea Steve - I'll take a tape measure with me next time I go to the dealer :)

    According to their photo there's 29-30cm between the fixing centres. My T120 is 30cm. Think I'll give them a go sometime soon.

    No, not yet, but I do keep looking at them. TBH I don't like the way they loop from shock top to pillion footrest. Don't think it looks good, but haven't found a viable alternative as yet, so I still may go for them when I come to planning my first camping trip of the year :)

    Hepco Becker have just released some mounts / racks / panniers for the new wc's. Not in the UK yet but do a Google search & you'll see them in the US.

    Cool - Thanks for letting us know bentango. I've been pondering and looking at options for ages but now with summer and some festival/camping trips coming up I might just bite the bullet and get these.
    What's the finish like? Are they 'fit for purpose'? I'll just be using them with a pair of 'throw-over' panniers.

    Quality seems as good as Givi but time will tell. I will be also using them for throw over panniers.

    Thanks Rob but I have a carrier already (the Triumph one). What I've ordered is the sidebars for panniers to be fitted to, or to rest against.

    They arrived this morning (just over a week from order) and they are fine. They fit OK (as Bentango says above, a couple of M8 allan bolts needed) and IMG_3545.JPG I don't think they look as bad as I thought they would :)
