Hepco & Becker Adds Orbit Top Case to Product Line
German brand Hepco & Becker has been producing protection and luggage solutions for motorcyclists for nearly 40 years, and its latest top case, the Orbit, employs a new latch and mounting method.
According to the H&B press release: “Using the middle space of the Alurack [mounting rack] to their advantage, Hepco & Becker have devised the latch mechanism to fit perfectly into that empty space, which eliminates the need for the previously required top case bow. This method now enables the user to attach a hard top case at a fraction of the previous cost, by eliminating several latch and rack components.”
The 54-liter case itself features a carbon fiber accent, a 3D logo, elastic inner strap to help secure belongings and a rubber gasket to keep your valuables from being exposed to the elements. There’s enough space to fit two full face helmets and a spare set of gloves, plus the unit uses a keyed locking system to help thwart thieves.
Additional accessories include the form fitted inner bag, backrest, steel top case railing, document pouch, and floor mat. Pricing for the top case is $183.31 and rear racks to mount the case start at $52.57. Visit MotoMachines.com for more information.
