Hi,
Have just bought a '92 xj600s. Saw some Krauser panniers for sale, seller says they are off a xj900. Anyone got an idea if they would fit the 600 ?
Thanks

Yes & mostly no. The Krauser K2 panniers mount onto a rail (locked on by key). (The "Yamaha" panniers are re-badged K2's.)
So you would need those K2 rails. Occasionally they turn up on Ebay.
But those rails then have a unique fitting kit (brackets) per bike. I tried to find a fitting kit 3 or 4 years ago & failed. They haven't been manufactured for some years.

Actually, they could well be Krauser K1's if they were on an XJ900, pre-Diversion. But the same issues would apply  . |

I personally think 600s with big panniers can look like mobile luggage. You may be better off with some of the smaller Givis and a decent top box.
