I decided I needed a top case for the R1100RS to go along with the BMW system cases. This will be a nice addition for the motocycle which will allow me to carry a lot more stuff for my daily commute. I ordered it 3 days ago from Bob's BMW and it was delivered today! WOW! That was quick! The box was about 17 pounds and packed very well. I ordered a lock to go along with it because BMW does not include it in the price. It was easy to install and went right on without any problems. I think I am going to like this case.
I tested it out and my full face helmet fits inside the case. The guy at Bob's BMW said it would not fit, but I had hopes that it would. It was a close fit, but I was happy to see the lid close whih the helmet inside. This case will make my daily commute better because I can take my favorite bag with me. I carry a Timbuk2 medium sized messenger bag to carry all the crap I tke to work every day. What's in it? I should take a pic and post it on flickr. Let's see here car keys, knife, ink pens, video iPOD, card reader, D-ring, flash light, sun glasses, reading glasses, cell phone, 2 USB flash drives, wallet, mints, gum, duct tape wallet, beenie, book to read, loose change, key ring of tabs from energy drinks, and my lunch. That's a buch of crap and there is still room for more. I love those bags!
