Here's a view from an old magazine ad for the Wixoms:

You'll need a rear rack plus the Wixom provides for a pillion backrest.

Hard case luggage
I stole a pair of Buco Twin masters hard case's with the brackets at a swap meet for my R75/6.
They should look great when I get them painted/pinstriped along with my tank & fenders this winter.
I have been searching the web trying to find a rear top case that would compliment them without looking totally wrong or different.
Do any of you Veterans know of a brand of a top case that would look close to these or even match these?
I don't have a vintage Buco catalog so I don't even know if Buco makes a rear top case.
Your help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your time & help.
Joel.

EDIT:
Does anyone have a picture of what the 1975 R75/6 Id tag should look like that is attached to the front of the frame.
My PO lost mine while painting the bike.
I see blanks for sale and would like to get the correct one.
Thanks again.

That's a very nice set of
I have a Wixom top case with its folding rack that might interest you. I bought it for my R69S and decided that it just doesn't look right with my Corbin solo saddle.
What I would like is some kind of medium-sized case --say, two-thirds the size of the Wixom-- that will mount handily to the small Denfeld fender-top rack. The radio box on the old Moto Guzzi Police 1000s would be just about right.
