the Wizard of Oz
So I pulled the trigger of a nice 2016 700GS and I need side, bags a rear rack, skid plate, crash/engine case guards. I like the aftermarket windscreen that's installed, and I like the BMW handguards that allow a larger piece to be attached and removed.
ALL my riding for the past 36 years has been on pavement, but I have plans for classes and eventually at least slightly more ADV type travels.
I thought I saw Givi aluminum side cases at R'zilla ( no connection) AND mounts for about $1100. Dealership thinks the Touratech (again I have no connection) Zega's; either Mundo for about $1100, or the pro's, a couple hundred more are much better. and another $couple hundred for the mounts. Brooks is under $700 for the bags. Which makes me suspicious. Also, I wonder which mounts are universal. The machine is set up for Vario side cases....worth it if I find used?
The Givi skid plate is well-reviewed and a little less $$ than others. I think I just want the lower crash bars...
Write if you have time. I'd like to hear your experience and opinions, thanx.
