I'm looking at purchasing some E36 Givi side cases for my '23 ST ES. Based on the research I've done, it looks like the Givi PLR2119 rapid release kit is the correct hardware to mount these cases to the bike. Does anyone have this setup on their bike or know of someone who does so I can reach out to them and get more info? Thanks.

Really appreciate the photos!
Your top case looks like a larger capacity version of the E36 side cases I'm looking at but your side cases look like a different type of case to me. I could be wrong since this is all new to me. Does the left-hand side rack bolt onto the exhaust. (couldn't tell from the picture)?
I think that's just a rubber isolator you're seeing at the forward end of the rack.

These are the PLR quick release. I used them on 3 different Supa Tens with great results. I wanted to decrease the amount of offset difference so used a couple of thick washers under each of the r/h twist locks.
This brought the left & right racks closer to being equal offset. Not exact....jus closer.

Great photos....thanks for sharing. Nice setup you have there. Is that a Givi 47L top case? I plan on using my old 47L monokey once the Givi rack comes in. Are those side cases E22's also, and if so, why did you choose them? They look really sharp!

Thanks. Why did you choose the E22's as your side cases instead of the E36's? Because you wanted top loading and didn't need the extra 28L of storage capacity?
Bingo. I don't camp or go "off road". That itch has been scratched. I bought the S10 because it runs and holds the road like a Kenworth and it'll go the distance.

I use the PL frames, not bothered about removing them as I use them quite often.
I also have the wee 22ltr top openers, but there a bit small for my needs on most trips, so this year I picked up an E28 and E34, they’re givis original pannier design but suite the bike well and balance the look.IMG_3390.jpeg10766284-cb78-44de-acb3-74346df1aa06.jpeg

Thanks for the photos! I like both of your setups but the more I look at the E22's, the more I like them. I usually don't travel for more than one week at a time and I'm hoping the the 47L top case and two 22L side cases will be enough luggage. Did you find the PL frames easy to install?

Right side easy, left less so. Theres a fixing inside the rear peg hanger trapped between the hanger and silencer. It’s easy to misunderstand the instructions thinking you use the lug on the edge of the hanger, it’s not, it’s in behind it.
As for size, I did 10 days to Spain Nov last year with the E22s and just managed ok, but all space was taken and I had waterproofs strapped to pillion seat. This year with the bigger panniers, and some slightly more careful packing I had space to bring the wife some French treats home. But also, I had a bag in the E34 that had enough kit for the two nights on the way there which meant my lid went in it overnight, leaving just the holdall and tankbag to carry up to my room each night, and to my cabin on the overnight Cain ferry on the way back too.
