Looking into this myself as the lady and I want to do some camping trips on the bike. Seems the Givi rack would be ideal for the top box.

What I can't seem to find are side boxes about that'd fit on too. I'm really not familiar with luggage racks etc so no idea which bits and bobs I need!

Anyone know of any that'd fit, onto that Givi rack if possible, and still have room for the pillion and also fit around the high-level cans I have?

Cheers, Adam

You wont get panniers on of any kind with high levels fitted. Your only other option is to have something custom made. Maybe pannier racks that could go over the top of the high levels and then get some panniers to fit.

No one makes panniers that I know of specifically for the vtr as it not designed for them. A givi rack and top box is the closest you will get to hard luggage.

i looked into this as we're touring france next year, fecked off with soft luggage and bungie straps!! anyway couldnt find any hard panniers for the storm! so ive made my own by customising a givi wingrack from a vfr 800, i'll post a pic later, just need some hard luggage now

Cheers for the replies! Didn't think there would be anything. Making parts is no biggie, I'm just lazy

The ultimate luggage racks

that's mine pictured with panniers and camping gear on rack. I got the racks off ebay a few years back, they were listed as made for the firestorm. Had to modify to suit the panniers and top box I bought. Having panniers spoils the looks but it is useful & means I don't have to go in car Going away on it soon, we are going bed and breakfast to wherever the sun is shining
