Re: Top case and panniers ... How much can they take?

Re: Locking the Nav5 to the RT...

As someone mentioned; Life would be pretty humdrum if we all had the same perspective
I keep the cover in the extra storing compartment I have and buy the small Garmin cover for 5€ since I do not intend to wait or pay for a possible upgrade if there will be any

Re: Locking the Nav5 to the RT...

I suppose you mean still fit it onto the cradle without the Nav (RTman10) and in that case is the correct answer No, of course not.

Re: Locking the Nav5 to the RT...

Sorry if I have misled some of you?! There is no part No on the back of this kit and I had thought that the photos and my hints like “Had nothing better to do = led to following modification” and “just use the BMW original blanking cover and something else you can find in your garage and just MacGyv...

Re: Locking the Nav5 to the RT...

Agree with all those who had argued that the only 100% safe way to prevent the GPS from theft is to not leave it on the bike at all. Have now used my locking system for two seasons and it has at least let me to leave the GPS on the bike when fueling or during other breaks. Have also seen other and m...

Re: Still no locking system or gadget???

Yes, maybe some of the blacksmiths who supplies all other steel gadgets like, crash bars, lockable GPS handlebar brackets, headlight protectors, pannier racks, sump guards….etc, mainly to all those who likes to give their GS a typical off-road style!! ;) ;) ;)
