I was here with my new BMW S1000XR. First we visited Aulanko (Pitty that the tower wasn’t open!) and I made a short Droneflight in the area. Here’s the photo of Aulanko tower:

Next we visited the castle in Hämeenlinna. I haven’t actually been there before and even now we didn’t go to the museum (insiden the castle). But got few very nice pictures!

I had this bike about 3 seasons (more than 2 years) and I simply love it!
During this time I was able to catch few nice pictures of it… Enjoy!

New Top Box will be Kappa KGR 46. This box has nice design even it is kind of “normal box”. With this box I had some troubles with delivery… I made the order from ebay from Italian company. But when they told it is on the way the tracking was never working!
And finally the box arrived after more than 5 weeks of waiting!

This goes straight to the monokey platform that I already presented in part 1.

I got these small boxes awhile ago. I made the order from Estonian motoshop Motokaup. The finnish reseller of SW Motech also has internetshop but this sucks! (R.M. Heino you can do better!!!)
First item:

Second item:

This is the ring that you must have if you want to use Bags Connection tank bags. I have one. I also had the ring in my previous bike but it wasn’t the original -it was a little bit modified by me. Bags Connection bags are made by SW Motech.

The Panniers…
In my previous bike I had the BMW original bags but they are quite small (35 litres I think?) so now I was thinking to get bigger ones. These are the bags I got:

Since I don’t have the bike yet I didn’t unpack all from the boxes but I took 1 picture in my carage:

These are 45 litres each. I was very surprised how light they are!! Almost lighter than the plastic BMW-boxes. It will also take some time to be comfortable how these look… The BMW-boxes have some design and shape… These are just boxes!
Then I will also have a new topbox. That I will show you when I have it.
Here is another video about SW Motech Trax adventure boxes installation (This one is in German):

Second package arrived today… all the way from China. I didn’t have too much expectations for this one but it seems that I will install this… I really wanna see how it looks on the bike!
These are the protection Grills for radiator and oil cooler -and these are very cheap ones! The normal price for these is about 140€ and mostly you will find these in black colour only. But this one is something else…

As you can see it’s blue! And I love it. I only wish the installation is easy and it fits there nicely.
