I'm curious to know if the bracket and pannier cases for a BMW R1100S can be
swapped onto a different model BMW bike? For example only, if I sold my
R1100S in a years time and wanted a R1100R or a R1150 GS or something new
BMW might bring out, would the the pannier set still fit to the other model?
I'm assuming the cases may be a universal fit but the bracket would be
different correct?

That is reasonably correct although one of the panniers for the GS is
smaller to allow clearance for the pipe.

I believe the right panniers are the same across all R bikes and the K12RS -
the left pannier for the GS and K12RS is a special cut-out one to clear the
pipe. Someone also has told me (can't confirm) that if you go with
Staintunes on a GS you can use the standard left pannier.

Yes, if you go for the Staintune low sports muffler on the GS, you can fit the
regular R bike left pannier.

The R1100GS and the R1100R both have a high pipe and consequently a smaller
pannier. You can run a low pipe and a full size pannier (my wife's R11R is
setup this way), you can even buy just a replacement back panel to change
the pannier from small to large or vice versa.
