They will fit, but there will be a cut-out on one of them for the exhaust (of the 1150)

I think mine might have originated from an 1150.

Still good, even with the city lids fitted.

I'm not 100% sure the bottom mounts are in the same place. I can check for you tonight as I have both bikes. I wanted to put this in the UKGSer thread where you discussed it but it was locked so I couldn't!

Yep, just checked outside. The right (full sized one) fits perfectly. The left side does not. The lower mount doesn't line up with where it is on the GS.

No-one mentioned the GS - the question related to the R.

Check the link I posted.......

The last post in that thread says the GS/R dont fit because of the exhaust cut put. I am off to the Classic this week so will have a good luck when I return

They're the same panniers :roll:

The link you posted had conflicting statements in it so I wanted to make it clear.

I wonder where my panniers came from, then? The left and right are different shapes, and capacities............

Probably the RT as that's the other type of left pannier they made.
