I was wondering if anyone has a lid that has no holes from a speaker/backrest that they might be willing to part with. I am going bluetooth so I want to get rid of the speaker/backrest and replace it with my corbin backrest but the lid looks like swiss cheese from all the holes. Let me know if you know of any.

Thanks,

Rich

Rich, just a thought.

Might be cheaper to take the top off and bring it to a shop to get prepped and painted.

That's what I plan on doing...the 33L looks worlds better with the cold sore lip off too, good call.

Rich,
I have a 35L case lid with no holes in it, BUT when the P.O. was shipping the bike it got dropped and the plastic where the hinge attatches was broken.
I molded the area with some epoxy but it only lasted about 6 months.(too much stress,not enough original plastic for support)

I aquired another lid with holes from a speaker setup, I had filled them with epoxy and was going to have the lid painted.

You could probably do the same with yours.

I know, I can have freaken laser beams coming out of the holes to cook the cages that are riding up my butt.

Hey Sonu,

I just picked up an IMC MOTORCOM BTS 300. I haven't hooked up yet but I liked it because it can handle a phone/gps/mp3 and intercom which is all I'll need. I will write it up as soon as I get it going. I am looking to pick up a used Garmin 2820 to replace the one I have now.

we have the bts 200... fine units for intercom... we had the first generation bhs 600... but they failed when we were up riding with the airborne man fowl...

one phone call and they sent me the second generation bts 200 units no questions asked...
