after some nudging, my wife has agreed to do some touring with me. So i went looking for some panniers as i sold mine a year or so ago ( dumb arse)  and me old mate tag had some battle scarred ones in his shed that he has given up on using so after agreeing on right amount of money i am the proud owner of some Givi Panniers.

A tube of epoxy glue, a little sand, some paint and the right pannier is watertight again, fitted them up. But once again my Svelte GSX1250 has a Kardashian bum so in order to make it legal i put these on it i hope it helps

Are your indicators inside the led taillight Jim?

BTW you'll have to change those stickers, not legal like that, you've got 2 left ones I think

Correct, and you only have to display Do Not Overtake Turning Vehicle once, the one on the left sign will do for that Wink

Think there's an ADR about bike indicators needing to be a minimum of 300mm apart - that's why I didn't wire up the indicator LEDs in my new taillight when I fitted it.

Now where do we get those miniature "keep clear labels".... Very Happy

No need for the small ones on your Kenworth barry, just use the standard ones
