Been watching flea bay for a good used top box, other sites too. Seen the nice smaller BMW box, but when they are in nice shape they are pricey!

Sooooooooooooooooooo. what's everyone using? How MUCH should I expect to spend ?

Send me your pictures too if ya can.

Much appreciated!

Yeah, the 22 liter top cases just about always go for $240+ on FleaBay.

On my RS, I run a Reynolds Rack with a cheapo $50 top case that's just big enough to hold a full hace helmet:





When the top case isn't mounted, Bruce Lee is my pillion. Very Happy



Since Reynolds Racks are no longer made and somewhat hard to find. You could also run a similar scooter case mounted to one of these:


Best price probably here:

If you want something larger, I ran a Givi 36 liter on my K75RT:


Best price here:

They also sell a Givi 45 liter:

I have an OEM 22 liter top case with backrest pad in excellent condition that I will only part with for obscene amounts of moolah.

Drake I noticed your Bagster holes were nicely lined up.

Well done friend.

Nope - just looks that way in that picture. My theory on Bagster hole misalingment is that it's really for a K75 which has a slightly smaller tank.
