i could not undo all the little nuts and bolts on the holder the bike came with. so i just taped it under the seat.

dunno if its legal, but it stops it getting nicked, but as my bike is garaged, and rarly left alone, the chances of getting the disc nicked is slim.

i used to have my baffle under my seat!

then got annoyed with it rattling about so it now sits somewhere in a box of stuff.

iv carried dvds in it before,
usualy put my gloves in it when at college and helmet on the helmet bit.

not sure what else i have put in there.

Nowt under there not even a tool kit (had to be taken out to fit the larger battery) if you're lucky you might be able to get a fag paper under there

No it's not, the tax disc (and i believe, unless it's changed) has to be on the left hand side towards the front of the bike and i think it's a ?30 fine for failure to display a valid tax disc

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

I carry 3 spare levers under the seats. Sv clutch and brake,plus a gixxer one for my Radial m/c.

Spare pegs,levers,toe pegs, bolts for the rear sets. Both sides.

Fuses, tax disc (don't care if it's not legal. I'm a rebel), bulb set.

WD40, block of wood, get you home fixer-peg.

Custom tool kit with sockets and 3/8 breaker bar.

Cable ties.

Do I win?
