- Ready-to-install soft luggage system for the BMW R 1300 GS with Vario carrier
- Various bag options with 30 or 40 liter capacity per side
- Keyed-alike locks included
Following the launch of the new BMW R 1300 GS, Touratech is offering a specially designed soft luggage system that can be mounted on the standard Vario carrier without any additional modifications. The Plug & Travel system is intended as an alternative to hard-shell cases and is aimed at travel and adventure use.
Concept and design of the Plug & Travel system
The Plug & Travel soft luggage system consists of a mounting system for both sides of the vehicle and two side bags. The bags are attached directly to the existing Vario carrier on the BMW R 1300 GS and, according to the manufacturer, are designed to be ready for installation. No additional carrier or complex adjustments are required.
The scope of delivery also includes two identical locks. These secure the bags to the mounting system and are intended to provide basic protection against unauthorized removal.

What does this mean for me as a motorcyclist?
For motorcyclists, the Plug & Travel soft luggage system is a solution that falls between classic hard-shell cases and universal soft bags. Those who already use the standard Vario carrier on the BMW R 1300 GS do not need to install an additional luggage rack, saving them the hassle of modifications and permanent attachments. At the same time, the motorcycle remains narrower and visually closer to its standard condition compared to aluminum cases. The defined volume of 30 or 40 liters per side makes travel planning easier, as the packing size is clearly specified. The lockable fastening offers a certain degree of theft protection, but is no substitute for a full-fledged hard case. Overall, the system is aimed at riders who travel regularly, prefer soft luggage, and value clean, vehicle-specific integration without permanently committing to a classic case system.
