Little pannier rack.

Motor bike will be moving home, maybe this week after a blitz getting my bikecave finished.
Some luggage capacity is nice for days out
I wanted something in keeping with the Old Skool style. No way can I fit my big tupperware boxes on this old nail.
So a simple pair of stainless frames and waterproof soft luggage.
As usual a simple job that takes a load of fannying about but happy with the result.
Paragliding by bike next and days out with The Other Half.
Maybe even a road trip with some old mates.

13mm SS bar for top rail and 10mm.the rest

make sure they cant sag onto the exhaust in use.

Good thinking that man
I guesstimate the clearance.
It does look close. First job tomorrow

 

[RichardM]

they'll probable sag down when filled and jiggled by the bike going along.

a drop down hinged shelf / frame on the bottom edge would do the trick. but very retro , looks the part.

I was thinking something like that.

On the job tomorrow

I thougth that - little laser cut shelf on hinges - would look cool

And would be pratical for putting odd things on - also stop soft pannier sag!

Well spotted @RichardM but plenty of clearance.
Little stainless shelf us tempting but not needed
Until I get bored.

Been there, done that. My first solo trip to France, with my nice new vinyl throwovers, crisp and square and cool looking.

An hour on the motorway, hot sun, they had softened and sagged and looked like a couple of overfilled bin liner bags chucked across the pillion seat. And one was already smoking, where it sagged into the exhaust pipe.
