K1100RS - Ruggedized Edition
Ruggedized with LineX truck bed liner. It's pretty cool chit because it's not only super durable but also has a shine to it at the right angle.
(Looks better in the sunlight.)

Oh man you need a pic in the light.
That shaded pic does it no justice.

I like the way you think!
It looks GREAT!

More info please Duck for those of us in the UK.
What is it, where do we get it and how is it applied?
Postscript;
Shoulda done some research before I asked. Found it now and will report on results.

Someone somewhere asked me how much weight this added.
I recently weighed a stock painted sidecase and one of the Line-X'd ones. The stock bag weighed in at 8# 14oz, the Line-x'd bag weighed in at 9# 1oz - so a difference of 3 ounces per side case.
Now the belly pan is a different issue. I didn't bother to weigh the stock vs. coated one but I suspect there's a bigger difference there. First of all, more surface area than a case outer half. I'd guess roughly 3.5 times the surface area. Secondly, though I only expected them to line the outside of the belly pan they did the inside as well. (I'm happy about this because it makes it much harder to notice the road grime that can build up in there.) So based on my guesstimating, I'd say the belly pan probably has another 1.5-2 pounds of weight.
