Always carry a bag with me, and the fold the rain coat suite nicely n keep in the ziplock bag.., for the Helmut, for casual one, just locked at the bike , have to careful with the position, so if it is rain, my Helmut wont become like a cup with full of water..other then that, thinking of getting a small box to fix, anybody got better idea?? lol

[sops]

Yeah, wanna find out how some of you guys do. I always carry a haversack, so I fit everything in. I haven pillion anyone yet. Thing is if want to pillion, have to put the helmet on the back seat (either use bungee cord or net). Then when pillion want to sit, with my big bag, how? If guy fren can ask him carry my bag ah.. hehe

[mtb]

when I go out always carry a backpack (work or play)

 

Raincoat and bike cover are all inside... if pillion put the backpack in front lor

hahaha! there were some dat use dat b4 but it didn't last long in the heat/sun out here. another thing is dat the cover kept coming off evrytime there was a fall or go tru bush on trail rides. so it kinda die off,bike racks started 2 come out during dis time 2. one of the 1st trail bikes 2 come stock with a rack was the honda mtx 200r. and dat was the end 4 the tupper ware!

I commute with a backpack. But its not like I carry a rain coat around. =)

Don't travel long distances so most of the time i'm willing to put of with the rain. Nevertheless, I have an idea to share with you guys. Don't know if someone has thought of it before.

 

You know they have "saddlebags" bags/pouches that cyclist mount underneath their seats. Available in various sizes. I'm sure we could figure a way to secure it onto the frame underneath the tail. since there's a lot of room/clearance. Only downside is that it's gonna get dirty. then again those bags are waterproof. So you just need to spray off all the crap on it. Think it might work?

 

No one will know you have a bag hiding underneath your tail, won't affect occupancy if you have a pillion rider. I think it might just work. Someone go try it out! I would but there's not really a need for me to do it at this time. Good luck!

 

PS; I dig the tupperware idea.

[dszw]

jus go watson and buy the disposable poncho for $1 .its in a small packet.i have it in mi pouch all the time,but never realli use it,coz whenever it rains,i always on the way hme,so i jus get a little wet.

[deckard]

i see a lot of XR4 with big boxes..

 

i suppose it is not uncool to mount boxes on scrams.

[PaulKWZ]

I am riding a Dr200. I have a side pouch attached to my bike. I DIY it.. It is big enough to squeeze a set of standard raincoat, 1 set of poucho (pardon me if i spelt wrongly), two cloths, a screw driver and a wd-40

hey dinokoh.. do u remove the bags when u're not on ur bike? Coz i seriously need ideas to haul items occasionally and tried duffel bag, but when there's pillion, the seating's a bit constrained. thinking of buying saddlebags or DIY, but scared pple can anyhow kop.. dun wanna invest in a box rite now. btw, we both have the same ride. the toolbox compartment's good place to keep stuff. I place bungee cords, cloth and sometimes parking coupons in there. Wished it was a bit bigger or there's one on the other side.

Hey brother, just to let you know never try the Viper saddle bag(unless you are riding XR, KTM or something with the exhaust will not melt the bag). Just my point of view as it didn't look nice and it didn't work on my bike.

 

I suggest you should go army market and try to DIY by buying the bags there. It is cheaper though. However, parking coupons should put in a lockable bag.

[PaulKWZ]

By the way i don't remove the bag. The raincoat in there is the cheap skate kind

Just install a givi box behind problem solved. You can put whatever inside without afraid that someone may cut your softbag with a penknife.

I agreed. But i have been using softbags for almost 1 year. Nothing happened yet.

[PaulKWZ]

However the box must be E42 or something. I tried e33, still too small.... UNLESS I CAN AFFORD H&P!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[PaulKWZ]

I am selling another type of side pouch. read here -> http://www.singaporebikes.com/forums/showthread.php?p=4630786#post4630786

I am using E33 for my ksr110, i put one full face scram helmet , one armour jacket, one foldable umbrella, one rain coat for my boots.

Wat did you put inside the box? E33 can put 2 helmets if i am not wrong.

[PaulKWZ]

I was using a full face but i am used to carrying an extra helmet. E33 can squeeze two half face only. Anyway i am still happy with the current one.
