WOW really looks like a lot of space between the frame and tupperware, looks like wasted space BMW could have used to increase storage capacity, good spot if someone wanted to have a nice tool kit for example.
The liner is not fastened, easy to remove, with a little care.
Those top frame bars are inside the storage area, not outside - I could be wrong, but I don't think there's as much free space there as you might be thinking...
Is that the panels on the fairing that sort of sweep upwards and flare out to deflect the wind?

Those seem like something that might only be worth it for folks riding in extreme cold weather, where getting just a little more wind off your hands might make a noticeable difference. I don't ride below the 40s and rarely below the 50s, where the heated grips are more than enough.
I just use snowmobile gloves when the weather gets cold and have done fine in the past with those and heated grips. I think the deflector looks kind of neat on the GT, not so much on the S version.
Maybe the guy at that cycle review site will try them and give a report, or a member here will.
Sorry what bike are you talking about
C650GT. The rear brake hose runs along the top of the swingarm, but up closer to the front of the bike, mine is (or was, if they've fixed it) apparently contacting the bottom of the fairing where the fairing for the cargo compartment is at its lowest (in the front where a helmet would be sitting top down) when the suspension was fully compressed - it left marks on both the fairing underside and on the brake hose.
