Nailed?!! How about the same place the original bikes tool box goes? Or you could fit a soft bag to mudguard/headlight surround?

Doing/done all that mate but was thinking of a bit more storage or somewhere to shove a bottle of petrol. Can't be doing with rucksacks like.

A rack?...Did you not get on with mudguard bags then? I find a rucksack is pretty essential really to wack a tube/lever/pump/refreshments in. A small 12-15 litre rucksack I think is relatively unobtrusive. And it doesn't get left on the bike so it can't get nicked outside tesco.

I've just put a little 2ltr bag on the back muddy, don't want anything too big like a rack. Knew a lad come a cropper landing on his rucksack once and avoided them ever since. I didn't get the tool box and they seem mega rare, something to go where that did would be cool.

Ever though of nailing a home made one to your TTR? confuse

Here's a CLICKY LINKY to show how it's easily done.

A bit more unique than a Yamaha original too. smile

I have a back protector so I would of thought that would stop anything in the rucksack giving me a kidney punch! Um you could get a bag for the front muddy too, they have four clips that just hook to the edge of the plastic. Headlight surround bag is an option too. You might be able to adapt a xt225 serow toolbox to go on or have a metal one with screw cap made up...the latter option would be waterproof...

 That's what I'm thinking. I've got some old tube from me fishing days in the garage rafters tempting me.
