The panniers appear on UK ebay from time to time. Prices vary wildly, I've seen one set go for £147 and the next only went for £95.

Hi Falcoholic thought you were ignoring melast timei waved to you when at the bike shops in great western road,the sound of thunder just sailed on by without a side word glance.
looked at a very low miles 06 bike last night,but would appear over priced by what the dealers tell me.
anybody out there got access to price guide for late bikes parkers only does 04?
Got a few thought on the conversion hence question re damper.

Got Oxford soft luggage for paniers and they work fine, however I've fitted a 45L Givi top-box to my Falco using a Ventura rack and Givi universal mounting plate. Easy to fit, Ventura rack feels more than strong enough to carry the weight plus any load in the top-box. If this is useful to you I'm happy to send pics across.

Cheers
