So, I've been working on more storage space for the Ruckus. I've been looking for some saddle bags/panniers or something. But I had an idea while looking at bicycle handlebar bags. I could mount one on the grab bar behind the seat. So, Joie picked up two with the original intention of one for each of us. But after getting a look at it, I decided one could also be affixed to the cross bar under the front of the seat, and still not interfere with legroom (much). It might if I had shorter legs. Of course, now I have to pick up two more for my brother. Still working on side bags. Here's my pix!:       And I have since taken off the tags. |

And I have since taken off the tags. What a remarkable idea You could mount one in the front rack on top of the lights, so the front tire can also share some of the weight  |

Looks great. Way to turn that Ruckus into a pack mule. You need cup holders and a cooler.

I've actually got a bag I bought for the front rack a couple years ago. I've still got my camera mount on, though, so I'd have to take it off to mount anything up there. |

hey man what did you use for the headlight covers? got a link and what you did to keep em on? thanks I'm sure I've discussed them elsewhere, but in short, they're just a pair of KC Stone Guards I picked up off Amazon. Colored the white KC letters with paint pens (red on mine, yellow on my bros). To make them fit, they needed to be sanded down a bit in the place they touch, and just run some riot ties through. |

I have a little bungee cord that I use to rope my lunch bag in place on the little ledge above the lights.
What I would love is a place to stick a sword. Anyone got one of those to share?

Yeah, I've got a bag I got from the Army surplus store I use as a disc golf bag I can put up front, when I dont' have the camera mount on. As for fashioning a sword mount, I'll look into that, later. Or at least a machete mount. |
