Soft luggage on an S4

Does anyone know if soft throwover panniers will fit onto an S4 (not an S4R like mine)? Thanks.

You should be ok provided the S4 has standard low level pipes, but may need to remove the platsic seat cover. I used a set of Oxford sport panniers on my old M600 for camping & European jaunts with no hassle at all, and found the one under/one over arrangement of the velcro straps worked best on the seat.

High level pipes are a bit of a non-starter with normal throw overs. The panniers can get cooked by the heat of the cans, and they usually end up sitting way too wide. I have to make do with tankbag & large rucksack these days.
