I. Installation of the rack

BMW R1300GS comes in several different seat and OEM rear rack configurations, depending on the equipment package. Scroll down to find photos which pertain to your bike and follow the instructions.

-For bikes equipped with Pillion comfort package: 

1. Remove passenger seat.

2. Remove three bolts marked in red on side of the OEM plastic rear rack. Repeat on the other side as well. Make sure all the threads are clean. Keep all the bolts, as they will be used for installation of Perun moto rack.

3. Remove OEM rear rack.

4. Use two plastic clips (part number 52105A09840) to plug the threaded hole marked below.

5. Install rear subframe cover (OEM part number 46637106015). This part needs to be sourced from BMW dealer.

The bike is now ready for installation of Perun moto Top luggage rack - Sport. Jump to step 9 to continue the process.

-For bikes equipped with Regular rear seat and smallest OEM top rack / grab handle (part number 46725A75D68):

6. Remove two bolts, marked in red, on side of the OEM rear rack. Repeat on the other side as well. Make sure all the threads are clean. Keep all the bolts, as they will be used for installation of Perun moto rack.

7. Remove the OEM small rack by gently pulling it backwards.

8. Remove plastic rear subframe cover (OEM part number 46637106015) from the OEM rear rack and reinstall it on the bike.

The bike is now ready for installation of Perun moto Top luggage rack - Sport.

Our Top luggage rack - Sport can be mounted with BMW Small OEM pillion seat (part number 52531541507) or OEM 'luggage plate' (part number 77141541531). Installation process is the same in both cases. We're showing the bike with small pillion seat mounted.

9. Remove two bolts on the underside of the tail, marked in red. Make sure all the threads are clean. Keep all the bolts, as they will be used for installation of Perun moto rack.

10. Use four M5x10 buttonhead torx bolts to install grab handles onto the Side bracket large. Grab handles are identical. Make sure the finger carved side is oriented downwards. Add a drop of mild thread locker to all the bolts. Tighten to 5Nm. 

11. Use two M6x20 buttonhead TX bolts, four M6 flat washers and two M6 safety nuts to assemble large and small Side brackets. Align upper edges of the two parts and tighten the bolts just enough to keep everything in place for now.

12. Insert stepped spacer in position marked below. Smaller diameter part goes toward the bike.

13. Re-use one of the stock bolts and add one M8 flat washer to install pre-assembled Side bracket as shown below. Hand tighten the bolt for now, Side bracket assembly should move freely.

14. Use one of the larger spacers and place it between Side bracket and the frame in position marked below. Re-use one of the stock bolts and add one M8 flat washer. Hand tighten for now.

15. Place one of the remaining spacers between Side bracket and the frame on the underside of the tail. Re-use one of the stock bolts and add one M8 flat washer. Hand tighten for now.

Repeat steps 10 to 15 on the other side of the bike. Once completed, this is how it should look like.

All M8 bolts should be only hand tightened at this moment.

16. Use four M6x20 countersunk bolts, M6 flat washers and M6 safety nuts to install Top luggage rack plate onto the Side brackets.

Once everything is aligned, tighten the M6 bolts to 6-7Nm.

17. Tighten the M6 bolts connecting large and small Side brackets to 6-7Nm.

18. Tighten the M8 bolts to 15-20Nm in the order shown below.

19. After a few rides check all bolts and re-tighten if necessary.

PS

If you have two OEM M8 bolts lying on the table at this moment, don't panic! This means your bike was equipped with Pillion comfort package so you had to remove eight M8 bolts in total.
