    Hi guys
    I've found a Seca 900 that I really like but I'm hesitant to buy it. I currently have a Seca 750 with the Yamaha luggage and fairing. I like to keep my stuff - jacket, gloves, groceries, etc - on the bike. I dont like backpacks or tank bags. So what are some of the solutions for carrying stuff on a Seca 900? Does Givi make a rack and trunk that fits? I'd like the solution to look like it belongs on the bike... like the way the 750 luggage saddlebags and trunk fit on that bike.

    Thanks
    Steve

    Hogfiddles,

    I won't disagree with your observation, but I think that back packs look even more ridiculous.

    I have not seen any good options for luggage on a 900, but I like the 900 and I ride my bikes every day of the year - so I'm trying to find a good solution.

    Somebody on this forum had a rack for a 900 a few years ago so I know they exist.

    I'm including a picture of the bike which looks awesome - but how can I carry my stuff????

    Looks don't matter. If you can't find pretty luggage, then get ugly luggage.
    A dry-bag would do the job, and not look out of place.

    1. Bike is nice and clean :)
    2. Your yellow reflectors should be vertical, not horizontal
    3. Yes, backpacks look even more goofy.
    4. Yes there was an optional rack available

    +1 - I just picked up a magnetic tank bag that a generous rider in my area was giving away. It has an amazing amount of space. I can fit my rain gear without expanding the bag, and could probably fit my work shoes as well when the bag is expanded.

    Backpacks are better than nothing. That's all I have had until this week. However, would prefer saddle bags.
