I made pannier racks for my boxeye because nothing was available for some non-fango panniers that came my way. The non-fango mounting is different to Givi etc.
I already had Givi arms for extra support to a rear rack mounted in-place of the grab rail. The back end of these arms forms the rear mounting for my pannier racks. For the pannier racks I used 16mm dia x 1.6mm wall thickness steel tube. The tube is welded to some brackets made from 3mm steel strip. The other mounting points I used were the pillion footrest hanger bracket mounting points and one of the bolting point for the grab rail on each side. The bottom of the non-fango panniers just slot onto the tube and the top mounting was something I turned up from stainless steel bar, but is specific to non-fango. I also fitted a tube near the back which ties each side rack together for a bit of extra rigidity.
These are the only pictures I could find on this computer which show it, but I have some that show it better somewhere else which I'm sure I could dig out if you think they will be of interest to you.
