The Mariner

Hi Guys,
The Ace is a lightweight bike & not meant to have luggage, but there are times when a little storage would be handy. I'm not a fan of back packs when riding, so after reading Sneikz excellent how-to about adding some storage I decided to look at other options, and I came up with a small saddlebag.
Believe it or not, it's a saddlebag to use on your pet dog !
It just so happens to also be the right size to hang over the Ace's tank, or fit on the Ace's seat. If you hang it on your tank it comes with straps that can be arranged to clip it down but if you seat-mount it you'll need to add some aluminium frame to hold it clear of the rear shocks.
There are also some steel rings you might want to remove to avoid scratches on your paintwork.
Luggage would always look a little out of place on the Ace but the light brown colour kinda makes it look a bit 'vintage', it's easily removable when you don't need it & it has a carry handle if you need to take it with you after your bike is parked.
