I have three items I hope to get done on the Rockster for the weekend, fitting the GS handguards, the Wunderlich Trimm Windshield and BMW System Cases. Although none of this looks terribly difficult, there are no directions (well I have them for the windshield but other than the words User Manual and Part NO: nothing is in English
) so if anyone has pictures that might show the mounting for any of these items I would welcome the opportunity to look.

Well....I'm not sure if this will help you. I've got the city cases on mine but no matter...city or system, it's not the cases that need to be mounted...it's the luggage rack. Once the rack is mounted then the cases just snap right to it.
Here is a little gallery of my rock that has a couple of close up shots of the rack, cases, etc.

Hope it helps!
nice job!

Nice job!
And thanks. The pictures show exactly what I needed for the cases. I was sure it was simple, but I'm also an 1 1/2 hours from the dealer and have actually never paid attention to what they looked like mounted. I am tryng to make my cool weather 80 mile RT commute a little more pleasant and a place to stow away the morning (and rain) gear is going to help.

One thing to remember is when the case mounts on the rails the tab that pushes out of the case looks like it should push into a slot on the rail..but no..it just pushes against it....I've heard of a few that have tryed to push or prise out what looks like an insert on the rails..but it's not.
