Support Brackets and Harware

[rollingon15s]

I just purchased 2 used panniers for my 02 Sprint and am looking for alternatives for mounting brackets and hardware. The dealer wants $450, is there any alternatives or am I SOL. Any help would be appreciated.

You could always build your own of course, go through ebay might show something up or maybe you could find a motorcycle scrapyard.
There's also the Classifieds section on this forum.

Other than that I can't think of anything but a Triumph dealer, maybe one have a used part you can buy cheap (well, cheaper than new anyway).

I got my panniers , complete with all brackets ect, secondhand, for £120.00 in UK. There are dealers over here, & probably in US, who buy up bikes with accessories. Strip off the assessories for sale then sell the bike too. Try your second hand dealers via ads & the web.
To keep my panniers safe in the garage when not in use, I duplicated the rails the panniers fit to on the bike, in wood & screwed them to the garage wall. !!!
Good luck !

I would go with Bonnevillet140v's advice and pick up the full kit. There's a lot more steel goes into the back of the ST to carry the pannier rails (which are plastic).

Here's a link to a page that has the fitting instructions, and the diagrams showing all the parts used...

Use the links menu on the left to select the following options and you will find the instructions

99-04 ST > FAQ

at the bottom of the page you should find "Accessory install tips" and then on the next page "Triumph Top Rack /2 Box Pannier Set"

these should get you there!
