The design of the BMW 1150/1200GS means that there is massive storage space loss with the near-side pannier having to accommodate the exhaust pipe. So we at STAHLKOFFER set about designing aluminium panniers and frames for the R1200/R1150/1100 & F800GS. By increasing the width of the near-side pannier frame the pannier now hangs on to the frame and sits “proud” of the exhaust pipe, thus giving the owner a “full pannier”.
The off-side STAHLKOFFER pannier is designed slightly bigger so that it can store a full-face helmet. So with a set of STAHLKOFFER Panniers & a Top-box you end up with just over 100 litres of luggage space (more than adequate to store two people’s luggage on a three-week camping trip).
We also realized that when traveling you might want to get something out of the top-box or panniers so the design is such that the lids can be simply & quickly unlocked & removed – even if camping-gear etc is already strapped to the lids. Also STAHLKOFFER use a “one key fits all” system making locking & unlocking of the pannier lids very quick & easy.
The pannier frames have been so designed that they utilise the existing location points on the bike frame. so pannier fitting could not be simpler!
