Yep.  I've been eyeing them to pari them up with some Moskos but I believe I need to make some holes in them to make them work with Mosko's wedges...

SW Motech released these a few weeks ago, however, the UK distributor Motohaus don't have them in stock yet, or atleast their not showing on the website.

But when they are I'll be finally able to install my panniers.

Which panniers did you go with?

I already have the SW Motech Trax Adv Topbox fitted and panniers from my previous bike, just awaiting the rails.

I've had them around 6 years and still like brand new, they were expensive initially but a good investment, every-time I change my bike I just get new rails.

Gotcha.  I've been looking at those as well.  Not too heavy?

They're aluminium fully welded so comparable with others but certainly not heavy and you don't really notice them unless your filtering.

Appreciate the follow up!  Thanks!

Ordered mine a few weeks back. Now shipping so will hopefully have them in a few days. The listing didn’t show compatibility with the GT Explorer, but looking at the mounting instructions I decided to roll the dice and see if they’ll work out.

Hi All

I may be wrong but the old rails were symmetrical on the bike meaning you could a) mount cases of the same size and b) mount a Motech Tool Tube.

The new design of rail looks like you need to mount a large case on the non exhaust side and a shallower case on the exhaust side in order to 'balance' the width.
