Default Piilion seat/bag on Ebay.

Of these; http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SV650-K3-K9-PI...item5d2c3fd6ed

Seems a good idea, and at the price about the same as fitting a gel pad to the pillion seat.

Tia, Tj

Default Re: Anyone tried one?

Would be worth finding out if it comes with internal "walls" to hold up the material, if you know what I mean. Otherwise, I can imagine all items inside falling over to one side on the first sharp corner...

Also, this seems to be to operate on the same, albeit more convenient, basis as the Oxford humpback tail packs which, if you notice, still need bungee cords for stability so that the bag does not sway or slant off the side of the bike... Without bungee cords, I wonder how stable this one is when expanded...

Perhaps an alternative is to carry some of those ratchet straps to strap around the bag and body work when expanded?

I think his point may be that it also acts as a gel seat when not in use... unlike the Kreiga US10 (which incidentally I just bought myself - yay! )
