Subject: Q: Hepco Becker



Hello!
I'm going to get some cases for my '94 RD07, and I am not very impressed by 
Givi's "more-than-a-meter" wide solution...   :-)
I've seen a picture of an AT with a Hepco Becker "case carrier" 
("Gepäckträge"), and it looks like it is placed above the exhaust. I then 
assumed it would be symetric and not so wide.
Thus, when I called Hein-Gericke in Kiel, I was supprised when he suggested 
to use one 40l and one 30l case to compensate for the lack of symmetry!!! My 
German speaking is not too good, so I dropped a further discussion with the 
guy...   :-)   The Hepco Becker dealer here in Norway is not an AT-expert...

What is correct?? I would like a symmetric solution with two 40l cases and a 
possibility to add a topcase later. Is Hepco Becker the best choice? Are 
there different carriers for two or three cases, or is there a separate 
topcase adapter for the bagage place on the back of the bike?
I am thinking about buying the stuff at Hein-Gericke in Kiel on my first 
vacation day (much cheaper in Germany than in Norway). Can I mount it on my 
AT in a couple of hours?

Thanks for a great mailing list!
