i have used a US10 as a tail pack for about 5 years. inside compartment is waterproof but the pocket is not. i cut the straps in half then bolted them to the fixing points of the seat/grabrail. use a hot soldering iron to make the bolt holes on the strap ends or else they fray. once the straps are bolted to the subframe you get a very very secure fixing and at the end of the day you just unclip the pack and tuck the straps under the seat. the tailpack moves about and to stop this you need to use a non slip surface under it as the one that is stitched to the bottom is shizz.

if you make the straps long enough you can put a rollpack under the US10 and strap it down using the US10 to secure it.
