@Hood are you going to put a cross tube between them so they don't bend in?

No, wouldn't really be room for an effective cross brace as it would have to be curved up that high for wheel clearance that it would be ineffective.
I am currently however working on a stay which hooks into the lower slot for the oem panniers.

@Hood
I think this pannier idea is slightly flawed and can be vastly improved.
Go back in time and to a different continent, where the cowboy on his mighty stallion always had a mule tied to his stallion with a length of rope and the mule carried all his goods.
Now
Replace the cowboy and stallion with you on your Africa Twin,
why burden the steed with all the luggage ?
what you need is a Honda Cub ! You will see them on the roads of Asian countries carrying larger loads than the average lorry. I do understand that the aforementioned Honda Cub will not just follow along tied with a piece of rope .
This is where the idea gets even better and will get you brownie points with the government.
Employ a spotty youth to ride the Cub and bring your goods to you.
