Member Contributer Mait Posted February 21, 2022 Member Contributer Share Posted February 21, 2022 Excuse me if this has been discussed and there exists a perfect solution that I could not find. I see the 5th Gen. had a couple of anchor points towards the front of the back seat and another two towards the back. But these are no longer there on the 6th gen. Please let me know if I am missing something or if someone was able to DIY beautifully. Thank you in advance. Mait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All things being equal, I had a tail pack with bungee cord hooks intended for something with anchor points securely mounted on my 6th gen in the past. I think I put two hooks on the helmet loops under the saddle for security, or all four on the handlebars looped around. I am sure I was careful about the paint somehow but this was too long ago for me to remember, and I have the Honda top case now if I really need something beyond panniers and tank bag.

Member Contributer Thumbs Posted February 22, 2022 Member Contributer Share Posted February 22, 2022 The 8th gen has loops for exactly this situation, they’re stapled onto the underside of the seat so shouldn’t be hard to fit some to yours I’ve been using a Kriega tailpack since the day I got the viffer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But there is not a whole lot of space under the 6th gen saddle to work with due to the underseat exhaust. The saddle also sinks down below the top of the cowl and there is a channel between the saddle and the upper surface of it, so keeping it from rubbing it would be key.

That would be helpful. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
