01 Sprint Pannier mounting kit

[RJScotti]

Could someone please confirm if this is what the pannier mounting bars look like for the 01 Sprint or are these for the 05 and newer?

Not 1999 to 2004 mounts. Nor the 2005 til now. According to them, they are for the 1994-1998 Sprint.

Thanks. I read the "Sprint Carbs" but wasnt sure what that translates into. I guess that's the very early bikes. Sorry for such a novice question.

Just a word of caution. Folks often sell the pannier racks for the 99-04 ST on the bay, but don't sell all the metal work that has to be added to the subframe to give the strength to carry the panniers.

If you already had the topbox rack as standard with the bike, then you should have the metalwork already, but be very wary of buying pannier racks if you haven't got the extra metal.

there's a good thread somewhere on this forum with a page of instructions and schematics if I could find it to link to! :???:

Great, that's exactly what I was looking for. Very detailed. I'd have never found that. Good tip.
