On Bike Storage for 1000rr?
Tomorrow is the big day to pick up my Silver/Blk 1000rr! I have seen the bike and the lack of trunk.

Outside of a tank bag (which I have), does anyone have any ideas for a low profile, durable, attractive storage solution for phone, wallet, glasses, etc.?

I am thinking the best solution will end up being a piece that replaces the rear seat, but has a aero hump instead of a flat shape.

Ideas are appreciated!

How about a backpack?

ala Hayabusa or a TL1000 rear cowl? sounds like an opportunity.

I saw a picture in the latest motorcyclist,dude went cross country on an r1 and had a nice aerodynamic hard shell tailbag,looked like a big rear seat hump cover,but larger.It was strapped to the tail section,even had blue paint to match the r1.I don't think they mentioned the name of it though.

I have been working on attaching my smaller Chase Harper rear pack and my larger Bike Master bag I use for longer trips. I will post some photos once I get it all worked out.

I have just purchased an "Oxford" tail bag for my 954. It was one of the best made on the market and the best fitting for the pillion seat on the 954. Worth a look.
Here is the web site, just search under Luggage, then Humpback,then Humpback Tailpack2004

Is your tank bag magnetic? If so, I think the tank on the 1000RR is plastic like on the 600RR.

EuroBikes.com is the only US distributor... They still have the tank cover/Alpha bag special for $249 I think.

I think New Enough were selling tankbags on closeout. Here's the direct link.

Ventura will probably have (if they don't already) something for the 1000RR, if you wanted a little rack and bag that wouldn't touch any part of the plastic. Used that on my 929 and it works great. Especially if you want to take a trip, their other bags work very well.
