Help me mod the SV!

Having done a few hours of research, my opinion is this: avoid buying this case. You should buy a luggage system. Buying a bag by itself means that you need to find a rack to mount on your bike and then mount the bag to the rack. It's easier to just get a bag + rack system that is built for your bike.

If your bike/scooter already has a large rack, this bag will work great. But it's a pain for an SV because there's no good rack that will fit it. I could look into a custom rack as described above but I just want to save others the trouble of having to do the same.

As a side note, anyone know anyone in Austin that will custom fab a rack as described above?
