The Givi quick release pannier frames and V35 panniers go on a treat; simple fitting and easy operation, and the cases are surprisingly spacious.

The BMW Akrapovic slip on goes on a treat; also simple to fit.

The two of them can't co-exist on the bike as the mounting bracket of the Akrapovic extends further towards the rear end of the pipe and occupies the space that the Givi frames also occupies.

I don't really fancy modifying either, so I have to decide if I'm happy to swap end cans end I swap the cases on and off... Luckily they're not time consuming activities

If life was simple it would be boring
 
Brilliant.

Anyway, I thought I'd posted this somewhere. I did make the mods in the end.

Modified pannier frame.

Modified pannier.

Coexisting accessories.

Happy Gyp.
