tail bag

[ChandlerScoot]

I added a tail bag to my ride. It is strapped on the back seat, but I have ordered a flat mounting plate (Kymco part) to mount the bag to. The bag is nicely constructed of a durable kevlar like material with leather accents. it will not fit my modular helmet so I am stuck with using the helmet hooks on the bike.

Beautiful pictures of your beautiful bike as usual, ChandlerS.  I like the mounting on the back seat.   Since I never carry a passenger, if I were to get something I think I'd mount just like you've got it.  I assume the seat still opens with the bag in place?

Yes it will open as long as u hook the straps under the seat & not under or aroung the grab handles. U do have to pop the seat & pull up on the back of the seat as it will not lift it's self up with the bag weight on it. I have done this often on cross country trips.

Thanks Hoo, as Sissy said, it is strapped to the underside of the seat so it does not interfere with the operation of lifting the seat base. I too ride alone most of the time, however to pull the bag off when my wife wants to ride would prove to be a pain in the arse. So with that said, we are looking for a low seat height scoot for the Mrs. The best candidate I could come up with would be a Yamaha Morphous. Those are hard to find as my search has been proving...

Chandler, have your wife set on a Yamaha Majesty. It set's much lowwer & the handle bars seem closer to boot. Are you sure u want her riding in Phoenix traffic? It's a mad house I tell you, a mad house! Sorry, I lost it there for a moment.

Have you got  link or price for the bag and maybe the plate? Looks like a nice set up, and i'm doing a long trip next month, so would like something like that so I don't have to wear a very stuffed backpack for the entire journey!
