Title: Krauser Bags on Tonti
Post by: Scout63 on April 04, 2021, 06:44:06 AM

Does anyone know of a source for racks for mounting classic Krauser/ Hepco Becker side cases on a G5? Thanks.

Found it. HB part 6505020002.  Not cheap.  I’ll look used.

I had Krausers on my G5 "back in the day", mounts were universal like these:

I did a set up like Charlie's on my 89 Mille' GT a long time ago.  I remember making my own brackets to attach the cast mounts to the bike. I used 3/16" this x 1" flat steel and fab'd and bent and drilled until I liked what I had.

They pop up on ebay occasionally.  Period BMW racks are more common and can be modified readily.

They look good Timmy. I have a set on the way from Harrytief.  I can’t wait to powdercoat and fit them.
