Cases for a New 1200GS

I am grinning ear to ear. I just have taken delivery of a new 1200GS. I want to put cases on and am undecided which type. i will use the bike for light touring and commuting. My 650GS has Caribous on board.

What are the thoughts out there? Touratech, Micatech, BMWs or Caribous?

Thanks

My 2 cents...

I ride 75% road and 25% desert trials and have found the BMW Vario Cases to be fine. I like the looks of them although they don't have the world explorer look. Functionality is great -- they have single key operation, they can be expanded if required, and they are very easy to put on and take off. So to sum it up, I'm really happy with them but if I wanted to go with different cases I wouldn't hesitate to go with Micatech's or Jesse's.
 
StatDawg has a great idea. I have the Jessee Bags and they are great. Have the strength of finely crafted and welded boxes.

Wait one! They are finely crafted and welded boxes and made in the USA! :usa
