Thanks Boxerboy.

I have them on my R1150R as well, but was undecided on the R1200RS as I did not want to add anything to the painted surface. I had seen your post, and one from Lee, and had been thinking about it, until I went riding at night and my buddy said the bike wasn't really noticable and the only thing that really stood out was the reflectors on my BMW boots ... That convinced me to go forward, but considering how small the cases are, I felt it needed something extra.... That and I've been thinking from day one that this bike is screaming for a red accent.... It might not be visible from the pictures, but I put a couple of small pieces on the rear handles. I figure that setup gives me more conspicuity no matter the combination of cases or none at all.

Regards, -mc
