I have been looking and seeing the post , as the weather shuts down a lot of riding , due too snow , rain , and so-on ... the temps fall into non-riding degrees ... I wonder , as you folks start the hibernation of spyders , what are you finding in the trunk , and frunk , storage areas ? is it stuff long lost , at the first ride , just forgotten , or things that are just there no-longer really needed ? { and did some of these things leak ? :yikes: do you have photos of the mess ... I can imaging , 3 pair gloves , scarfs , tools , money . just too name a few whats in your trunk ?

I ride all year, so i try to keep an eye on items. I keep a tool kit all the time. In cool Sept. through May I keep extra gloves, jacket liner, extra pair of socks, extra neck protection, and hat. From May through September I exchange the cold weather extrasfor a rain suit, but i keep the hat. I also sometimes keep an extra set of fingerless gloves.

Top Trunk: Flashlight, extra tools, A brush for the Missus' hair, lens cleaning kit, and anything else that gets pitched in there and forgotten.
The Glovebox: garage door opener, spare keys for everything, knife, fuel mileage log, extra small brochures to give out, and the extensions used with the LidLox.

I will tell you what didn't LEAK, my 750ml bottle of GAS that I carry for emergencies. It's from a Souza tequila bottle that is rectangular shaped so it's very compact. Apparently the seals for things that carry ALCOHOL are made better than others, I can't even smell fumes. I haven't had to use it yet but I have saved others from walking :lecturef_smilie: :roflblack: .........PS and the bottle is FREE .......... Mike :thumbup:

Frunk: Owner's manual, road maps, killer knife for self protection ("Hold that thought, you SOB, while I dig out my defensive weapon").

Glove box: Wee spiral notebook and pen, comb, my photochromic motorcycle glasses wrapped in a micro fiber cloth.

Rear trunk: Thin white shirt to cover my arms when I can't stand the sun burning me anymore (guess that one can come in for the winter), rain jacket, myriad tools, various straps for tying down cargo on my passenger seat, and of course baling twine and duct tape (couldn't call myself "ruralgirl" if I didn't believe possessing just those two items could get you thru life).

Side boxes and frunk and rear trunk other than mentioned above: EMPTY at all times because I do all my shopping on my Spyder!
