You forgot to mention 'deet'.......for those Texas born, Houston grown, helicoptor sized mosquitos.

You use DEET on them? We use .38s on the Adirondack-sized ones! :shocked:
I don't know if putting a bag up under the windshield might make adjusting it vertically an issue or not. :dontknow: Maybe some research is needed...

Hey Bob, I have thought about how handy one of those would be on the RT. I've looked at them and like the way it is made. Here is a question tho, you have the new vented windshield that cuts down on turbulence, I cut the holes in mine and it does cut down on the buffeting considerably. I am thinking the dash pouch might interrupt the air flow from the vents and would allow the buffeting return :dontknow: . I like the storage of the dash pouch but I like the smooth air much better.

That's my thought as well... :thumbup:
Besides; I've always got lots of pockets! ;)

I have the Hopnel bag for the RT & really like it. I did have to super glue the Velcro strips directly to the dash to keep them in place. They would tend to peel off at highway speeds even though I cleaned the dash before applying them. The adhesive just wasn't strong enough. After super gluing, they've stayed in place.

Big Bike Parts sells them; http://www.bigbikeparts.com/Inventory/Navision/H41-152BK?catalogNo=1

My dealer was able to secure a Spyder tank bag to my ST. Not perfect but very happy, missed that bag.

There have been a couple products that seem to have come and gone from SL. As Mark L. mentioned, one problem was the original adhesive did not stick. I believe there was also someone that posted a problem with wind buffeting. I was interested in such a product until I read enough unfavorable reviews about them. That was the end of my shopping for that item.

Currently, what I need to get at "now" fits in my glovebox on the RT's. Everything else, goes in my pockets or elsewhere on the :spyder2:

This is a bag that Reggy at TRICLED developed as a prototype but never put into full production because he did'nt have enough interest. It is very sturdy and just large enough for sunglasses, camera, small handgun, etc. Made from high quality material, waterproof, and doesnt obscure vision through the windshield.

Maybe he will reconsider if enough people request it ...

It's magnetic and I can just pull it off whenever I'm somewhere I think people might be interested in taking my snotrags and earplugs.

It is small (phone, sunglasses, couple rags, weewilly, earplugs, ziplock bag for "oops" moments.) but it satisfies my basic requirements.

As always, when in doubt, go back to the Spyder's lineage-- shop the Ski-Doo store! :joke:

Great find looks like it would work perfectly for non ventilated windshields.
