| I was wondering if the Hepco Becker side bags will work with the Mistral exhaust I have on this bike? Or is the muffler too high? Side Bag Brackets [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] | |

| You'd have to try. I know when I had the Aprilia bags on my 1200 Sport, there was a supplied spacer to effectively lower the pipe a smidgen to clear the bags. Of course it also reduced lean on LH corners. You may require a similar setup with the H&B ones. I could take a photo, but the 1200 Sport with H&B bags would not necessarily apply to the GRiSO. I have C-Bows on my GRiSO with a Mistral muffler, and the Givi E21s fit fine. [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] | |

| I already have a set of 30L and 40L bags for the mount I linked. I don't want to get another system in addition. I have tried looking at some different bag threads on the forums and have not been able to come to a conclusion. | |

| Sorry didn't see you had linked a carrier. Looking at the carrier it appears to hang about 3 inches lower than the indicator so your bags maybe close depending how much lower they hang below the rack. | |

| When I had the Mistral on my 1200 I had to get a bracket made up so that I could lower the muffler by about 50mm. Once that was done, the 40 litre bags fitted perfectly. Now that I have the Agostini muffler, I don't need the bracket as there is sufficient space without it. | |

| Thanks diedel,
I'm going to go out and take a picture as identical as I can to yours and compare them. | |
