Hello everyone, been lurking these forums for a couple months since getting my z650. I searched but couldn't find something that directly answers my question so here's my first post.

How do I mount a kriega r30 backpack to the seat using bungee cords or rokstraps? The hooks near the pillion footpeg will do the trick for the front but there's nothing on the back (the taillamps are not really structural elements, someone else on the forums used it as such)

I had some thoughts but was hoping you good folks have already found a solution to this obvious problem.

Initially, I bought off e-Bay a set of hand-grab rails that were color-matched to the frame. These looked good and worked very well for compact loads strapped to the rear seat. Later on I replaced them with a rear luggage rack that allows larger loads and keeps the rear seat mostly uncovered.

Wow that's great. I was looking into getting a sidecase mount that also had room to hook stuff to.
Do you mind linking to the rack and/or posting a picture?

@oldenslow quick question, did you get the rear rack so you could mount a Shad/Givi top case or is it for generic luggage, meaning anything that’ll fit on it?

Generic stuff. I have several duffle bags of various sizes so I can bungee on as much or as little capacity as I need.

Sweet, thanks again!
