This is the smaller (28ltr?) of the two that BMW did, its not had a lot of use really. It has the padded backrest fitted (£40-odd quid!) and an as-new genuine BMW inner bag, complete with carry strap....that cost me around £70 I think. My ST's been written off in France so I'll be listing a few bits and pieces while I'm recuperating in the sun in Spain! I have the original plastic key to go with it. Item no. 263715594674 on eBay will show you what it looks like. Oh, it was in the garage at home when I got wiped up, so it didn't go down the road with me!
£175 delivered, but I can't sort it out till I'm back in the UK on 8th June.

Re: BMW 'small' topbox.
Sorry to hear that My first ST was also written off - in 2013. There's only 178 left registered - so presumably that falls to 177 with yours gone.

100 more R12S have been disappearing than ST :O Some might have been converted to trackbikes but probably ridden harder than ST's so more accident prone.The Teutonic Tangerine wrote:Sorry to hear that My first ST was also written off - in 2013.

I reckon your guess of track bike is more likely the cause of disappearing R1200S's
