INCREACE UNDERSEAT STORAGE part 2

I have an Ermax under tray fitted to my bike that gives me more room under the seat but there is one small drawback you have to cut the original plastics to make it fit leaving a hole or slot at the bottom [SEE PIC] for things to fall out if you are not careful.
To solve this I got my self one of those cool bags the size of about 3 cans of coke to slide into the space allowing me to drop anything into it and no risqué of anything rubbing against my Scott oiller and inadvertantly adjusting the flow of oil and chaffing any of the wires. Its also waterproof which is one extra bonus.


[EDIT]
If you look close you can see my new remounted brake res on the right next to the scott oiler thats part of my GAP mod.Just lift the seat and you can inspect the level

I have also an ermax undertray but I have noticed that the undertray is not attached at the bottom (fender side). If I put something under the seat I'm affraid that with a vibrations and others shocks it will break. How did you resolve it Chewy ?

Hey Frenchman, I think he solved it by putting stuff in a pouch/bag!

Done over 7000 miles with it fitted no cracks nothing broken or out of line. Try this idea and it will dampen anything down you have under the seat also wrap anything up in a soft cloth. Hope this is of help.

I'll try to find such a bag and will try with that or will wrap up in a cloth. But at first I need to put in another place an electrical box I have under the seat ;)

It was my farther who showed me how to apply things without ever knowing he did. He would always remember where he had seen something unused then when he needed something to solve a job and would remember where he had seen it sometimes many years later. Found memory’s of when he used stand up to say
"Now I have seen one of those somewhere"
I just look at all the resources around me then try to apply them to a problem that needs sorting. You may be looking at a cooler bag I see a solution to a problem under my seat.
In my garage I have lots of bits of what seems like useless stuff then one day it isn’t anymore.
