Re: [ST] Soft tail bag for ST 1050

["Jeremy Witt" <Jeremy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

There are plenty of tailbag options that sit on the passenger seat, if
you aren't going 2-up.  Cavernous tank bags can also be had, I have a 21
liter (I think) Marsee that can nearly hold a small child when fully
expanded.  Ok, maybe a pair of cats...

Subject: [ST] Soft tail bag for ST 1050

I just joined the Sprint ST list this week after I ordered a 2007 ST.
I'm trading in my 2000 Trophy for the ST. The test ride on a 2006 ST
caused me to lose all restraint and I had to have an ST. I love my
Trophy and put 20,000 miles on it (I know, that's not that many) but the
ST is a great ride and great looking.

My question is has anyone with a newer ST with the exhaust under the
seat tried a soft tail bag and strapped it to the seat by running
bungees or straps under the exhaust? That has got to be too hot for
straps under the exhaust. I take a lot of trips, but I'm not buying the
top box for the ST. I want to use some kind of soft bag on the back
instead. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
