Hi folks,

I just bought from motorbikesandparts.co.uk a Givi topbox rack for my 1999
BMW R1100S.

Thought the page stated "pannier rack not included", they're shown on the
photography :
<http://www.motorbikesandparts.co.uk/givi-topbox-rack-for-bmw-r1100s-9805-
p-16597.html> or <Loading Image...>

No problem, I understand that, I can read :-) But I hoped they can sell it
separately.

But after a few mails with them, they told me that the product is
discontinued by Givi, and is no more available. And that perhaps I can
find a 3rd party rack, but "do it yourself".

Does someone have a hint to find those (no luck on eBay), I'd like to use
my side cases when I travel. In fact, I have to.... Topcase and Bagster
aren't enough.

Many thanks in advance,

Cheers,

None of Givi, SW-Motech nor Hepco & Becker list a kit for the R1100S so
you could be out of luck

The only option might be to put a search notification on ebay and wait.

Isn't that what the OP has discovered is discontinued?

If not, then he should just go buy those.

he's been told by one trader they are discontinued - I'd try another
dealer or contact Givi direct
http://www.givi.co.uk/Distributori-e-rivenditori-en/ has a list of dealers
