New Pelican-based Luggage System - Page 11

What's the problem with lower/leading-edge tab? Nearly all hard bag designs do the same thing - it lets the top mounts bear the weight, while the tab stabilizes the bag side to side.

The KTM 950 is a tough one because of the sales volume. It will be summer '06 before I can get to it, and it will likely be higher priced. I have not forgotton the hard lesson I learned building an exhaust system for this bike. I'm still sitting on the inventory.

Perhaps luggage will do better.

I have been waiting for a system like this, please put me on the list for a set for the 1150GS when they become available. I've been running trashed system cases for the last three years, now I know why.

Mmmm.......any chance of a luggage setup for the HP2? I either need to buy a setup OR try and engineer my own somehow.

GStupid · 12-31-2005, 04:17 PM

The wait is killin' me! Hard to wait for something that looks so good. Wait a minute. That's why I got my bike...

CaribouCases · 01-01-2006, 08:24 AM

The first 10 sets of BMW R1150GS/R1100GS/Adventure Caribou luggage systems are ready for shipment this week. 3 sets are already spoken for, so send me a PM or email if you want a set. $770 + $35 shipping in US.

I've sent emails to those who have written recently. After these 10 are gone I'll have 50 more in February.

Production a bit slow currently since I'm putting the processes and quality checks in place. Production rate will improve soon.

1200GS and F650GS prototypes done and going into production shortly, working on KLR design now too.

Got the Caribou logo decal done...

Excellent system!
Have you considered a distributor down-under? (too early no doubt).
Or, how much would shipping cost to this peaceful island?

I'm estimating $150 for International Express Air Delivery, about 5-7 days anywhere in the world.

Slow-boat 4-6 week delivery will be about half that.
