The Turkana HippoHips™ soft luggage adventure motorcycle mounting plate provides an effortless on/off quick-release system, accommodating various soft luggage options.
With this innovative mount, attaching your HippoHips™ baggage setup to any pannier frame is a breeze, offering unmatched versatility, the system fits the majority of adventure motorcycles, and installation on popular motorcycle side luggage rack systems is simple.
Crafted from glass-filled reinforced nylon 6 material, these plates are nearly unbreakable, making them the perfect solution for adventure riders seeking a reliable soft luggage mounting option. Designed with the needs of adventurous riders in mind, this lightweight pannier plate setup enables enthusiasts to embark on epic adv-enduro journeys with ease, from daily commuting to traversing continents.
The hard-mount plate design offers versatility with multiple attachment points. Adjustable slots make it easy to configure and fit the plates to different shapes and sizes of touring motorcycle pannier frames. Compatible with most standard aftermarket and OEM motorcycle pannier racks, these plates allow you to customize your luggage setup according to your riding style. At only 900 grams per plate, they add minimal weight to your bike.
Compatible with a range of racks, including but not limited to Outback Motortek, TOURATECH, BMW, KTM, SWMotech, HEPCO & BECKER, GIVI, TUSK, Holan, and SHAD, these plates offer versatile mounting options.
For riders utilizing BMW GS Adventure OEM pannier racks or similar designs with a slanted profile on the exhaust side, we offer an optional adapter kit. Additionally, each plate features standard attachment points for Rotopax gas/water canisters or similar liquid canisters with matching bolt pattern attachments.
When paired with the super lightweight HippoHips™ saddlebags weighing just 3 kg each, the entire setup weighs less than 4 kg per side. This low weight, combined with the narrow profile maintained by the plate-mounted system when fitted with the HippoHips soft bags, enables hardcore adventure enduro motorcycle riders to excel in demanding, tight technical off-road terrain.
