Hi, New to the forum, passed my big bike test in Feb and bought a blue Diversion F, 2011 the same afternoon.
It has what I think is a Yamaha luggage rack already on it, which allowed me to bolt my 30Litre monolock adaptor on there. I want to get some hard panniers for the bike - just done my first 700 mile tour round Wales with Oxford soft panniers, and it was a bit of a pain. Researching it, Sportsbike shop etc. said the Givi hard pannier kit for this bike has been discontinued?
Does anyone have any recommendations for hard pannier racks I can buy? Also, If I went Givi somehow (second hand etc.) would I have to replace the Yamaha aftermarket rack? Itd be even more money and Id rather not have to.
Soft panniers not the end of the world, but would prefer hard cases like the Givi ones.
Hope you guys have some advice for a newbie.
Cheers,
Dom

Hi Dom. Not so many on here have the modern xj6.
But when I had mine, I too only had a top box & soft panniers. So I can’t help with knowing if any hard pannier hardware would fit around the stock yammy rear rack or not 😕.
( I recall it was expense which put me off, but I can’t recall how much the prospective options actually were).
