What do you carry under your pillion seat / cowl?
 
Stolen unashamedley from the GM section purely on account of the fact that I thought it was an interesting thread.......

A certain person keeps spare clutch and brake levers as well as spare pegs under their seat - handy but bulky and ominous!

I can't quite catalogue mines at the moment, but I find that you can get more under there each time you try! Photos might be interesting too, either in-place or more impressive spread out on the floor for us all to wonder at!

Does the OEM cowl permit more storage space perhaps. all RELEVANT comments welcome.

Judging by Sunday some peeps obviously don't have a toolkit.

I have:-
  1. Some tape
  2. A can of stuff to sort a puncture
  3. Side stand puck
  4. Standard Toolkit (plus a couple of allen keys and a couple of fuses)
  5. A bottle of visor cleaner solution
  6. Disc Lock
  7. Some cloths
  8. A working 12V cigarette lighter socket. (Useful for travel hairdryers;))
  9. Occasionaly I add a camera.
Oh aye and the OEM cowl definately lets you fit more stuff in.

Nope. Got mates and RAC card see? ;)

1. Scottoiler
2. Cargo net
3. Map of Scotland

all live in there permanently, plus rideout specefic extras as required, e.g. for Sunday...

4. Balaclava
5. Neck warmer (in case it got cold later)
6. Sunglasses (in case the sun blazed away at 4 degrees above the horizon)

Don't want my disc lock rattling around next to the Scottoiler so it lives in the toolkit kaboosh. Fits perfect...

Scott oiler, OEM Toolkit and disc lock.

Is there a prize for the most "stuff" ?

dont know have never taken seat off. Might have a tool kit but as I dont know what Im doing with it, no point carrying it. Think there may be a side stand puck maybe

I had puncture repair stuff under seat cowl at AR04 but it exploded under seat filling cowl with white foamy stuff that dripped out all over rear hugger.

if you watch LWR you'll see that Charlie & Ewan didn't know what they were doing but at least they had the tools when the friendly locals stopped to help.

Opps soory, thought I was still in the GM :thumbsup:

Double post oops - is it just me or is the forum all screwy?
