Just a couple of pictures showing how versatile our R1200Rs are:
Around town scooter:
On the Road, pack mule:
Pictures were taken a few hours apart. Just an example that the R1200R can be whatever you want it to be.

You need pinstripes around the base of the windshield.
I have plenty (50' roll!). I found the next size wider than what Creamora used on his bike. PM me if you want a few feet, my treat. Scout drivers need to support each other!

i beleive they are 2 different cases
city cases vs touring
Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut that connects handlebars to the saddle.
