Glee bits for a wee
« on: June 02, 2020, 22:28:49 »
Seems a simple question but the search function didn't bare me fruit.

Will glee pannier frames, crash bars and bash plate fit a wee?

Is there any swappable parts or are they truely different bikes?

There's no definitive list of swappable parts (I think), though there are some - mirrors etc

Best way is to look at parts from manufacturers' lists - for example, you can see that pannier rails aren't swappable from looking at the Givi rails HERE

Engine bars and bash plate will,

Luggage frames won't.

Problem with the engine bars is that you will need the long bolts that currently hold the engine is as they are longer than the stock ones the newer bike will come with.

They can't be bought as separate items, only with the bars as a set.
You'll also have this issue with the bash plate if it's a stock one as the mounting bracket uses and engine mount to hang off.
