My dad bought himself his first bike late last year (BMW R1200C) and since I'm a bit more experienced both with motorcycles and with navigating the internet, he asked me to try to figure out his luggage options for his BMW.
Upon a first look, it looks to me like the "official" saddlebags he could shoot for is going to cost upwards of $500+ new. It also looks like there might be some off-brand leather bags he can buy for much cheaper, or possibly some non-saddlebag luggage options.
Essentially, I'm looking for luggage information for an R1200C and don't really know where to begin. What do people typically do with this type of a bike?
