Just purchased some VARIO cases (top box and panniers) for my 1250 and was wondering what protection film or decals I should get to protect them?

If like me you are going to tour with the missus on the back, 1. buy a set of inner bags. 2. Forget about them looking good.
mine are now 6 years old and the missus has kicked the shit out of them getting on and off, inbetween uses they are stored in the loft, every time they get dragged out they get more marks on them and once after riding in shitty weather the little darling wrote our initials in the grime on the top box where they remain permenantly scratched.
They are tools not works of art.
 
I agree. My bird is always catching my ally panniers. I scratched them falling off but like cpjs says they are just a tool for carrying stuff in.Stickers will cover anything major.

what type of bird do you have?

chicken?
Sparrow?
Blue tit? :D
 
I had mine covered by a local sign making shop with vinyl , for a trip to America.

could've put a picture of that Sturgeon power crazed bitch on ...... that would keep anyone well clear!
 
I’m with wot CPJS says.....let them grow some natural patina and be proud of it.

Inner bags are a must, and so bloody useful, arrive at hotel knackered, lift previously packed bags out of panniers, leave heavy panniers locked on bike, unpack your pannier bags in your room.

Go drink beer!

Same here!!

Probably different initials though?
