hi,
this is my experience on mounting and using the luggage set from hepco & becker:
my setup: Full chrome rack (side and rear rack)
Junior 30L cases
Yourney 40L TC40 topcase
Packaging: delivered nicely packed, in bubbled wraps and plastic bags
Mounting the rack.
Mounting the rack is "normally" quite easely but there are some minor things
1: you have to relocatie the blinkers with an L bracket. the minor thing is that the original chromed rear light doest fit well between the new L-bracket so i had to cut a piece of 5mm off ! (so now my rear light is damaged. you don't see it after placing the L bracket but if you want to remove the braket afterwards... you got a problem.
solutionbuy shorter blinkers to fit between the luggage cases so you won't need to relocate your original blinkers!
2: mounting the right chrome rack was not a problem, fittet perfect, but the left chrome rack wasn't a nice fit! the bracket to mount underneath the seat was to high! so i had to bend it downwards abouth 4 cm!! also i filled it up between the seat and the chromed bracket with a plastic piece of 1cm thickness to make a better fit
3: mounting the rear rack on the left and right bracket was no problem !
Cases: Topcase (fully watherproof !) tested it on my roard trip on heavvy rain! the case can hold a full face big helmet / jet / and some other stuff like some small bottles of wather, handgloves etc... so perfect size for me
(if we go with 2 on a trip my girl's helmet goes into the topcase and i lock my helmet with a small lock on my front brake bracket.
side cases: big enough for a short trip. ( i used 1 case for clothes, girlfriend the other one) and topcase for some other stuff.
the only down thing on the side case is the lock's don't look too heavvy. the fixing on the case is from plastic/ the lock itself is metal
all luggage-cases can be locked on the chrome rack.
Down side: riding without the side cases make's it look like crappy sight...
