Hi, interested to know where the nets inside the boxes can be bought from. Thank you! 👍
Great mods. I have that exact bike and side bags. I'm considering how best to add bottle or maybe rotopax carriers to the front and / rear mounted to the vario on the fixed ends.
Me encantaron las modificaciones, las instalare en mi motocicleta, excelente video!!!
Very nice I have the aluminium panniers but like the ideal of the lights and nets.
I love these luggage nets. I've searched for these because they have a back to them. It will hold the contents much better than just a net. Please provide a link where I can find these. I've searched all the sites and Google and no luck so far.

Hi J. Just discovered this post. So apologies for being late to the party. Thank you very much. What a great setup you have. I have this bike its a 2018 model. Very interested in the make / details of the mirror mounted phone/ charger unit. Also the hand grips. Are they a standard item, or are they an additional vibe proof ? Cheers
the light in pannier got me hahah, nice work out there, didnt u think about getting the nice kush back rest for the central pannier?

Thanks for this - exactly what I'm thinking of doing with my Varios on my R1200GS. Question: How did you route the cables from the boxes into the distribution box? Did you use connectors so you can remove the cases? I'm trying to keep everything looking as stock as possible and over here in Blighty we get a lot of rain, so I need to consider drilling holes = water ingress...

Lights in side cases are battery powered, so no cable needed. For topcase, I used a SAE extension cable like you would use for battery charging and cut it in half. It is waterproof when connected and has a tethered plug when not. I drilled a single hole in underside of topbox and used a grommet, and another hole in the rear plastic on the bike under the rear rack and routed to my fuse box (or battery as you desire).

@@jraiello Perfect - thanks. I misunderstood the part of the video where you showed the exhaust-side case as containing an air pump that this was connected too. I see now it's just held there with velcro.
Great video! One quick question good sir. Where did you get the nets that you set on the inside of the cases?

You mean industrial velcro? Later, I upgraded on the side with the toolkit because mine is heavy. I did that by using straps With clips that I got from ebay ( like $6 for four) and fastened them to the bolts that are right behind in that area.

Hi. What company made the tie down brackets for the tops of the panniers ?
Hi. In the exhaust side pannier cavity I see you put a tool bag held with velcro. I guess the tools could be heavy. How did you firmly attach the velcro bands against the plastic of the pannier? Glued ? Screwed or what?

I used a large piece of heavy duty velcro so the straps have a lot of surface area. It takes quite a bit of effort to unstrap. However, if you are going offroad (I don’t), you could use velcro with eyelets and screw in the case.
What's a wire meter? And where did you get the decals for your side cases? And those side wind deflectors up front? Thanks.

Go to ebay and type in “vario bags” or google, lots of choices. Mine are Bestem bags, but Kathy’s, Saddeleman, and others are good as well.
What Windshield is that?
R1300GS? Are you in the future? ;)
