    BMW DAKAR Info WANTED

    Greetings,

    Just heard that the latest Dakar comes with paniers as standard.

    - Does anyone else know of any other changes for the latest edition?

    And who sells them cheapest?

    Hi

    Yes the new ones do come with Panniers with the bikes
    I know this applies to the 650 Dakar, and the 650GS

    I have seen them new for $15995 somewhere

    Go to www.bmw.co.nz and click on the motorcycle link and follow your nose from there, tells you all about them

    Thanks Zukin,

    I went to a local 'approved' seller but they knew nothing...

    Need to test ride one, but finding one is hard work !

    Have you tried these guys in CHCH?

    Or complete this from on the NZ website and see what happens?

    Cheers Scott

    They're not actually panniers, that's just BMW-speak for "cardigan dispensers", I think the optional top box is the pipe rack and tobacco humidor....

    Don't think the panniers are up to much. Every 650 I see over here with panniers have them held together with duct tape. Topbox, on the other hand, is fine.
