My search is finally over. Once I'd seen this cool, custom BMW top box for the BMW K1100RS/RT (and K75RS/RT) in a photo on the 'net, I knew I had to have one. Trouble is, they're very difficult to find. I finally gave in and asked a dealer about them. It turns out they are still stocked, but the price for a new one is well over $300!! A little rich for my blood. I decided to put a want ad on IBMWR to see if I could get a used one.
Lo and behold, a few weeks later I got a response from a guy who totalled his K75RT, and was parting it out. After some back-and-forth, we agreed on a price of $75. I received it last week and immediately put it on the bike. I intend to just leave this box in place all the time, so I swapped my pristine rack for the very worn one that came with the box (what a pain). Anyway, here are a couple of pictures:
