Aluminium rubbings
It is advisable to stow sensit-
ive items of luggage in a bag,
in order to prevent them from
becoming marked by rubbing
against the aluminium. BMW
Motorrad offers a "watertight
bag" as an optional accessory
for use with aluminium cases and
the aluminium topcase. You can
obtain additional information from
your authorised BMW Motorrad
dealer.
Set of carry handles
Your authorised BMW Motor-
rad dealer can supply a "set of
carry handles" as an optional ac-
cessory to make the cases and

These optional accessories also
make good lashing points for
items of luggage and the "wa-
tertight bag" optional accessory
on cases and topcase.
