    Will these fit a 93? OEM Suzuki Bags & mounts

    SmartSelect_20200503-133752_Chrome.jpg
    New share attempt so hopefully all pictures show up now. They're in German unfortunately. The guys on FB GSX1100G group said they'll fit.

    Since I can only attach one picture here's a share to the other 2. Sorry I don't have more. Will these mount up right to my bike? Stock 93 93 Suzuki GSX1100G. I'm sorry I probably should have posted this under appearance...

        It's a little unclear what these were intended to fit in the first place.

        The one photo mentioned GS850/1000, so if that's what they fit, they would most likely not work for the GSX1100G, which is a completely different bike with a completely different frame.

        For one, the GSX is a monoshock rear suspension. The 850/1000G uses twin shocks, so the upper mounting point of the shocks is almost always used as a mounting point for luggage racks.


        Then again, you have info from an owner that they work, or can be made to work? It's impossible to say without the parts and the bike right in front of you. Maybe these are universal and you can get them to work by making simple adapter plates. The rear frame is tucked up under the plastic, so you'd need some sort of U-shaped brackets, which I don't see in the photos.

          I wondered the same, I talked to them and they said it was for an 81-83. They also said they found a set that fits mine, they're just waiting to get it. I think I attached a thumbnail upthread, it won't let me attach it again.
