luggage for our scoots ??
« on: March 26, 2013, 07:00:38 PM »
Hello everyone. I have seen pics of the xciting 500 with a luggage bag between the glove box and the seat. Does anyone know the brand or website or model number of one that would fit our machines? I have a 2009 x500 and thought that looked pretty cool!

Can you do better with your link. I searched every bag in cycle gear that was under $50 but came up empty. I will order it as soon as I find it.

Thanks for the help.

I can't find it either. Cyclegears' house brand is "Bilt", I believe. There's a Cyclegear store more-or-less local to me which I stop at periodically and they carry a lot of the "Bilt" stuff (I'll have to stop at the local store some evening and look). I'm wondering if they call it something other than a tunnel bag, but running through their luggage inventory did not yield anything similar either. I like having a Cyclegear retail store here as I find that glove and boot sizes vary horrendously between manufacturers (and sometimes even within the same brand) and it saves me money to be able to try stuff like gloves or boots on before buying.

I have sent Big Orange a direct message asking the question. If he answers I will post what I find here.

I got a reply. Here it is:

Michael,

This is the one I have.  It is a little big.  It works and I like it.

The problem is that it is not a clone of the Givi. If it was I would have ordered it already. Oh well, I am going to look at the one mentioned in the above message.

I found this one by Shad;

This one seems much better than the Cycle Gear one. I may buy it today.

Thanks MotoRandy.

I'm not sure if that would actually work on my Xciting 500.   :-\

Does someone actually have it on their ride?  I would like to see photo's and such...and how did you attach it? 

Now a little off topic but I recently added a EMGO Top case on my ride.  A review of it is here:  http://www.2smallerwheels.blogspot.com/2013/03/a-review-of-emgo-travel-trunk.html

That place is in Spain, I never ordered from them so buyer beware. I had one from Aprilia
and Givi makes them too. I think that is a new thing from Shad, hopefully they will be
selling them in the US soon!

The Shad bag looks pretty good.  I bought the cycle gear bag because I live in a town with a cycle gear and it works for my needs.  It might not be a perfect fit.  I think it has a slightly larger capacity than the shad.  It is not water proof.

I have a 45l monolock and the built expander bag. I can carry a ton of stuff.  I cant make the picture small enough to upload.  When I can I will upload the expander bag.
