GS Vario Bags---attaching camping gear

tommarinelli · Aug 1, 2017

My 1200GS has vario bags, which normally work well for me. But am going camping 2 up and having trouble determining how to lash camping gear onto the side bags and top case. Figured I'd attach some bungee loop type anchors to the boxes, but can't fine a spot to do that. Any recommendations or thoughts on what's worked for others? Thanks!!

There are several sources, here is one that has a few options: http://www.aerostich.com/catalogsearch/result/?cat=0&q=loops

You may also want to consider Rok Straps as an upgrade from bungee cords.

Thanks Alan! I agree Rok straps are great --- i do use them. I believe I found a spot on the vario bag to attach one of the luggage loops from Aerostich that should hopefully do the trick. Tom

Thing to remember with the Vario bags is to try and place the luggage loops in such a way that they are not affected by the cases being expanded or contracted, but are still stable in all directions.
