So still working on this. In talking to the gf she really likes the seat just hates leaning against the top case without padding. Can't believe BMW never made a cushion for it like nearly every other topcase out there. The grab rail sucks! It's at a weird angle and should be round not strangely molded metal. Come on! This was not a cheap bike when sold why should any one have to do so much to make a passenger happy!

So what I need help with

Better grab rails
Backrest

I did see a 1200 gs and she thought the grab rails looked great, the problem is I don't have tons of money to just go get a 1200! On my 1150 gs I had a bestrest backrest which I deeply regretting not taking off before the salvage guys got it. However these don't seem to work with a topbox so that's not really what I need now.

Thanks,
John
