    Default Mini Easy Accessible Storage for Passenger

    My wife has been asking me to find some way for her to have some small accessible storage space while we are riding for small things like garage door opener and various things that passengers might like to have handy. I just installed this bike bad on the passenger handrail and its working great for her so thought I would share. She does not use the radio controls so that is not an issue for us as this bag slightly sits over those. Having the strap tight near the back to hold the bag in place and looser up front so there is no interference when using the hand rails is working well.

    Here is a link to the bag: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    Hope this is helpful for someone out there!

    I have the same type setup on our RT and have also used it with previous motorcycles that had hand grips by the seat. Works great.

    I did the same thing with my watercraft. The bag was designed for use on bicycles but I find it perfect for storing my dock line. Easy access and convenient.

    THE GOOD FORTUNE TO RUN INTO THE ONES I DO LIKE,
    AND THE EYE SIGHT TO TELL THE DIFFERENCE.

    Good idea! I had a tank bag fitted onto our 2015 ST Limited and it held all that misc stuff, but it won't work on the new RT's. They are sadly lacking in glovebox space (but they have plenty of speakers that are useless to me!)
    I will check it out. Thanks

    Just ordered and received a similar bag from Walmart's website. Fits nicely and it has a little better price. Thanks again!

    My Utopia driver backrest has a nice sized pouch on the back of it... a lot bigger pouch than the Show Chrome driver back rest had that I bought originally.

    How's about the driver wearing a backpack? Lots of storage space there.
