    Re: TA600: Anyone ever fitted a Givi PL tubular rack to theirs? Opinions?

    Hi

    I have the Kappa pannier kit including the E21's. They are sturdy and come with the cross bar which joins them and is also attached behind the number plate. I also have the touring resivour of a scottoiler behind the number plate so I dont use the cross bar.

    Hope this helps

    Graeme

    I don't think SW motech do a set for the TA600....

    Has anyone ever fitted them and if so, what are they like?

    I've got a set fitted to mine (PL131?..I think) ...they're fine....don't look like any of those in the pictures though.
    Sounds like they're the ones you've seen.
    Equal distance either side of the bike. so there's space on one side to put a folding chair or tool tube...not sure about both but I'm gonna try soon.

    I've got E21 panniers..just right and not too wide.


    Good fitting kit with them.

    Ha!

    Virtually the same set-up. I just took collection of my E21s. Cheeky shop actually ordered Kappa ones.

    Same factory, same everything, just a Kappa logo and a blue key: still feel a bit cheated, though (the marketing machine has corrupted me!!!).

    I have a folding stoll and hope to secure it under the top box. I have a tool tube under the rack and have a home made one attached to one of the racks. Between the two, I should be able to carry all the tools I need!!

    As for the rest, apart from my stool, I think I'll be able to store everything in luggage: no roll bags this time (amazing!!)...
