FAQs

Are these carriers compatible with panniers from other brands?

These are EVO carriers, designed to work with SW-Motech's EVO pannier system. Compatibility with other brands depends on their mounting system's design; some may fit, while others may require adapters.

What is the weight capacity of the SW-Motech EVO side carriers?

The specific weight capacity should be detailed in the product's installation manual or on the manufacturer's website. It's crucial not to exceed the recommended load limit for safety.

Do I need to make any modifications to my Yamaha XT660Z Tenere to install these carriers?

These carriers are designed for direct bolt-on installation using existing mounting points on the Yamaha XT660Z Tenere (2007-2016). No permanent modifications should be necessary.

How do I clean the black finish on the carriers?

Clean the carriers using a soft cloth with mild soap and water. Rinse thoroughly and dry. Avoid abrasive materials or strong chemical cleaners that could damage the powder coating.

Can these carriers be removed easily if I don't need them for a trip?

Yes, the EVO carriers are designed to be removable. Follow the installation instructions in reverse to detach them from the motorcycle.

What warranty comes with these side carriers?

Warranty information is typically provided by the retailer or manufacturer. Please refer to your purchase documentation or the SW-Motech website for specific warranty details.

Troubleshooting

Carriers do not align with mounting points.

Double-check that you have the correct model year for your Yamaha XT660Z Tenere. Ensure no other accessories are interfering with the mounting points. Loosen existing bolts slightly to allow for adjustment before fully tightening.

Panniers feel loose after installation.

Verify that the panniers are correctly seated on the carriers and that all locking mechanisms or bolts are fully secured according to both the carrier and pannier manufacturer's instructions.

Corrosion or discoloration on the black finish.

Clean the affected area with mild soap and water. Dry thoroughly and apply a protective motorcycle polish or wax. If corrosion is severe, consult the manufacturer for potential repair options.

Difficulty installing or removing components.

Ensure all fasteners are clean and free of debris. If installation is stiff, try applying a small amount of lubricant to the relevant hardware. For removal, follow the installation steps in reverse, ensuring all fasteners are completely loosened.
