Title: DP Comfort Seat and Toolkit storage
Post by: Radracer6 on June 24, 2014, 08:20:06 AM
Hey,

Did anyone figure out a good way to attach the toolkit beneath a DP comfort seat? The stocker has a rubber strip and hook cutout to hold onto the toolkit, anyone do something ingenius under the DP seat? I tried some velcro but the pouch seems to heavy to stick.

So this is the stocker. The DP seat looks the same except it doesn't have the rubber strap and cutout to fit the toolkit

Mine had the cutout with the hook but not the rubber strap.  I took the rubber strap from the stock seat and it works just fine.  Have to remember to swap the tool kit over when changing seats though.  I also store my registration there.

 This must be a feature on the newer bikes?  My 09' 1100 or 696 did not have this option, which would be nice as the tool space on my 1100 is now occupied by a power commander.

Here is the stock seat on the right with the DP Comfort Seat complete with tool kit and registration on the left.

hmm yea I think my comfort seat came from a 696 because it doesn't have the cutout and rubber strap, weird because they list these seats for 696/797/1100 but I know the 696 has the toolkit where the 1100 has the TC module. I guess i should either staple a rubber strap or try velco with stronger glue.

I have the 1100S and the seat looks the same as those above, just no cutout or strap. My toolkit sits in the little tray between the tank and the exhaust valve servo.
