Top box from 800GS Adventure to fit R1200GSA

[sheldyn]

Hello all you LC people.

I have this top box setup on my 800GSA.  is there an adaptor bracket or some such thing that I can use on the 1200GSA so that I don't have to buy a whole new box?

I see these bits and pieces that may work?

Just buy a bracket from BMW, if it is a BMW box, or ping Zebra or ChrisL. They will definitely be able to help you

If its a touratech/bmw box it will just clip onto the existing GSA LC.

That's what I thought!  not according to BMW.  The mount on the GSA LC isn't as wide as the one on the 800GSA.

I just cant accept that I have to fork out for another box when mine is 100%.

take your box to a dealer or bring it to me and we'll test it

Thanks,  I'm out of town until Thursday arvi and I'm expecting my new bike on Friday so if I haven't got a solution then I suppose i'll be biting the bullet.
