that would fit behind the R12's standard seat?

The BMW top case woks well for this- there is an accessory back rest that can be added to it.

As a commuter who travels on a NYC highway with narrow lanes, potholes and loads of cars that an r12r with side cases can't fit in between, the BMW Topcase, with its ease of use and 28 liter capacity is a must. Other cases work- just not as well. Had a givi on an F800r- good but not as good. And it does make a good backrest for my pillion when i have one!For me, the extra expense was more than worth it- just like the extra expense of the bike itself was- is.

Unfortunately you may have to look for an aftermarket seat like a Corbin.

I spent lots of time asking the same to several vendors without any good responses.
