ncstatecamp Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 For the r1100rs/l are there any alternatives to the bmw system cases besides soft bags? Or any examples of someone making their own using the latching system? Thanks Link to comment
AndyS Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 I believe GIVI did a kit. Curious question, why do you want different cases? Link to comment
dan cata Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 Something like this? IMHO, the OEM cases look just fine on the bike. Even on the R1100GS, Givi cases look unnatural, like they do not fit there. Dan. Link to comment

JamesW Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 I checked the GIVI website and no hard side cases at present for an R1100RS at least that I can find. I too am looking for side cases for an R1100RS/L. Might have to go with BMW cases. All was well and then I sold my R1150RT with the cases which also worked with the RS. Link to comment

AndyS Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 Still don't understand why you still don't want the BMW cases? They are readily available from most breakers (as well as new). Can be fitted with slim city lids,or super oversize lids. The bike has the hardware to fit them and they look integrated unlike all aftermarket stuff. Link to comment
elkroeger Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 if it were me, I'd just go with OEM. I'm not sure I've even seen anything else... But these guys are liable to have something: http://www.twistedthrottle.com/ Link to comment
ncstatecamp Posted February 16, 2017 Author Share Posted February 16, 2017 Yeah now that I understand the versatility (multiple lid sizing) and what other comparable bikes I was searching for I'm keeping my search to the OEM stuff. Part of the reason I was looking to see if anyone had made something was I have more time then money atm, wanted to see if I could fab something instead. Link to comment
