BMW ANNOUNCE NEW PANNIERS FOR R 1200S
Removable and expandable cases - an essential extra for R 1200 S riders
Riders
of BMW Motorrad’s best selling super sports twin, the R 1200 S, will
know that the bike’s sporting credentials are complemented by its
ability to travel long distances. With this in mind, a flexible storage
solution is an absolute must. That’s why, due to popular customer
demand, the Motorcycle Equipment team at BMW has now made their
already-popular Sports Cases available for the R 1200 S.
The
Sports Cases’ unrivalled look and style mirrors the dynamic design of
the R 1200 S. Its attractive silver coloured fabric is reinforced by a
sturdy steel backing, which give the cases a soft look, while retaining
the security associated with hard panniers.
The cases, which
are unmatched in their ability to increase capacity from 17 to 25
litres, are designed in-house by BMW Motorrad. Such flexibility is made
possible by a unique ratchet system that allows the outer lid of the
case to stretch from fully closed to a semi-open position while still
remaining completely secure and water tight courtesy of an integral
lining.
The panniers can be easily removed with the bike’s own
ignition key and the locks of the cases can be coded to match the
motorcycle’s existing key.
The advanced design of the fitting kit
also means the bike’s dynamic lines are not weakened when the cases are
removed. This is due to the simple, unobtrusive pannier mount design.
For
added convenience, the panniers come complete with inner bags, making
it even easier to transport luggage without having to remove the cases.
These bags are also expandable, enabling the rider to make use of every
spare inch of pannier space on the R 1200 S.
The cases are now
available at BMW Motorrad dealerships throughout the UK, costing £178
each, with the fitting rails and lock available at an additional
£175.25.
