SortedGT Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 (edited) I've been using my old V35 Givi pannier inner bags on the GT, panniers are long gone, but kept the handy bags, while I sourced some new yins. Just noticed that Yamaha have just added a nice looking branded set on their website for the 20L side cases. Listed at £51.96. I thought, that's good value. No-one seems to be stocking them yet online yet, so did things the old fashioned way - phoned the Yamaha dealer (Saltire Motos) and spoke to Robb on parts. Once he'd found them on his system, yes they're new, not seem them before; he's ordered me up a set for £51.96, great value, and I can collect them when I'm visiting them next month for the bikes first annual service. 😎 Yamaha Tracer 900 GT - Accessories ...

HGP61 Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 I wasn't a fan of inner bags, always thought they took up some of your storage space. That was until a set of bags came with the bike I bought Much more appreciated now. I test rode the GT model at Saltire Edinburgh before I bought my Tracer but it was the smaller 20L panniers that put me off buying one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine came fitted (by the previous owner) with a top box (Givi Maxia E52 and top rack) large enough for me to consider doing house removals. 😄 Agree that they're worth having. The pannier bags mean I don't need to remove the panniers and carry them away into a hotel, B&B, hostel, or whatever. Just remove the inner bags and job's jobbed. 🤓 Panniers are also the best crash bungs known to man. Edited February 22, 2020 by SortedGT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, I cant imagine ever not having inner bags unless you like stuff spilling out all over when you open the lids. ***2015 Candy Red FJ-09*** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once the tent was up pannier bag went straight into the tent. I just had other stuff loose in the other pannier. 4 hours ago, SortedGT said: Panniers are also the best crash bungs known to man. Don't know about that, My riding buddy caught his heel on a roll bag tied to the pillion seat last tour and pulled his new GT over on to its side in a gravel car park. The pannier lid is in getting resprayed just now. He is trying to go more lightweight for next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
