Alternatives to fixing down seat

Toro · Feb 6, 2021

Amigos,

With the limited room we have to store things in the panigale I found a nice little space under the main seat... however it’s a bit of a pain to keep on using an Alan key to remove the seat.

Does anyone else have tips on ways to support the seat safely whilst providing easy access?
This one is a long shot...

Thanks in advance

If you don't mind putting in the work, you could try converting the seat bolts into a Dzus fastener type system for easier attaching/detaching.

Thanks for that... just started investigating your idea MaverickiB ;-)

Did you come up with anything?

Dzus fastener type system would be an easy way to attach/detach.
You can also search for a seat key lock system.

I know that this isn’t what you are looking for but I find that it solves all of my small storage issues.

the typical dzus is not stable enough, i think.
i thought about Tenax Fastener, not tried so far.

You could look into a small tailbag.

Just carry an Allen key, I mean how often are you in there anyway? I haven’t used the tail storage on mine ever since its so pathetic, tools etc go in a tail bag

I have managed to get in a small ratchet set, puncture repair and disc lock at the back ;-)
