Panniers interchangeable?

spencergt66 · 03-03-2013, 09:25 PM

I have a set of the KTM Gobi panniers but not really liking parts about them so im looking to go to the zega or zega pro panniers. That being said do i need to change the racks too or will the zegas fit using the gobi racks?

I don't think they can fit on the Gobi racks...Imo Gobi's are very practical to carry around, quite tough, a little wide yes but overall I like'em a lot...

If you buy the zega's without mounts you should be able to install Zega mounts to fit or easily or cheaply make your own mounts to fit.

Gobi's where to friggin big for me and the double jacket method that they are built by wastes space!

I have tried them all and have settled on Pelicans on my gobi racks.

Good luck

Looked a few places and have found so conflicting answers... So i Called Ron At KTM Twins said the Zega pros are a direct fit using the same rack... The issues came with the old hep-co bag racks. Now I just need decide on black or silver?

Have you got the KTM or H&B racks? The Zega's will fit straight up to the KTM racks.

Yes, they will fit. If you buy zegas/pros from KTM, they have mounts preinstalled to fit to same racks as ktm gobis. I have the ktm zegas (made by Touratech).

Ditto. I just bought a set of Zega Pros to replace my Gobis. I lost one of my Gobis on the way to work one day. The latch just broke. No big hits or crashes, it just fell off. Luckily I was able to find it. I never trusted them after that and always had a strap around them. The Zegas fit fine, just hang a little lower.
