New shad top case, MaMo engine guards, Wunderlich tube bar, Gps relocated with Motomate bracket, new skins [ RS4's ]. Quick run up the twisties to Saguaro lake to scrub the tires in and get a feel for the new bars.

He has a Corbin Smuggler pod on the back.
Cool Cover over the front seat. I don't remember which company he used for the cover.
Debbie has Cool Cover from the UK on her RS.

@markl, what supplier did you get your fender extender from? I've been trying to find one for my '20 1250 RS but no luck. TIA

Another upgrade, or maybe just another change for the RS.
probably the last I'll need on the 16RS. Suburban machine lowered pegs. Rode into the dealers this morning at 10. Out at 10:45 with the lowered pegs kit installed. The 11RT I have had them already installed and I like them on the 11, so took the chance on them for the RS.
By the time I rode the 4 miles to the highway, I knew they were going to give some nice relief for these old knees that don't need to be stressed anymore than necessary nowadays.
Very nice piece of kit. The brake side gets everything moved down with an adapter plate using your own pegs. The shifter side just the adapter for the peg ans there was a question of whether to lower it through it's adjustment/s. I'd spoken with two others who have the same bike that had the kit installed and they both said they didn't feel any need to move the shifter. I concur, it's fine the way it is with the lowered peg kit.
