I was riding this past weekend and discovered that if I flip my face shield up (full face Scorpion helmet) all of my buffeting and wind noise disappear... it's like sitting in the perfect sweet spot. Must be the way the open shield interacts with the airflow I guess. So now I've been riding...

I am still happy with the case! I've added the backrest pad for my wife and she says it is comfortable - she likes the extra security she feels by leaning back against something. As far as how solid it is.... it's pretty sturdy. It does flex slightly if you push against it but nothing I am...

Have only been able to put on 400 miles since the end of May. Anyone up here in the Northeast knows the weather has been absolutely terrible this summer. July has been the 2nd wettest in history! I am praying August will bring some better riding weather since I have 2 extra long weekends...

UPDATE: I mounted the Coocase mounting plate to the base plate but I still do not have the brake light hooked up yet (which is also power for the lock release & alarm). Here is what it looks like so far....

That's the GPT.06.498.100/S from Twisted Throttle . You can even get an adapter for it which will fit the Givi cases as well.

Okay, here are the pictures I took so far. Only got as far as mounting the base bracket and now I have to get some wire to make the brake light connection to the battery. First up we have the case itself.... And this is the bottom plate that the case locks into along with a decrative cover...

Sorry for the late response... I was able to install the mounting plate over the weekend but then discovered there was not enough wire to reach the battery (for the brake lights). I was surprised to discover that the FJR battery is way up in the front instead of under the seat like I am use to...

Just got my Coocase 48 and mounting bracket from Twisted Throttle yesterday. Looks really nice! Fits two large full face helmets without any problems. What sold me on this one was that the brake light kit was no additional cost - and the remote lock & alarm is a neat bonus. Will be mounting it...

I'd also like to hear some comments/reviews of this case. I'm looking to get either one of these or a Givi Maxia E52.

Wow, such diverse comments....some love it, some hate it (or at least would prefer something else). All I know is I want something other than a Shoei. I'll definitely be checking out the HJC offerings. Thanks for all the reviews and comments.... much appreciated!!

Awesome tip.... thanks!!

Okay, so since I am picking up my new baby this Saturday, I want to also pickup a pair of new helmets (my Shoei's are over 8 years old now). I was looking at the Scorpion EXO 1000 helmets and I really like them. I especially like the integrated retractable sunglasses build right into them! That...

By chance did you install the Helibar triple clamp yourself? Just wondering how hard it is to complete.

Yes, I was considering this as well. I'm sure I will have some time with the stock setup since I won't order any risers until after I have the bike here. Will give it a try for a few rides and see how it goes. Thanks!

Hi everyone! New member here (just finished my intro in the New Members section). I need to have the most comfotable ride with the new '08 FJR1300AE I will be getting soon. I want my riding position to be as if I was sitting on a Goldwing (haha.... yes, I'm dreaming). I see my two options are...
