Under the seat?

[Scooter56]

I just bought a lightly used 07 FZ and it looks like something else should be strapped in next to the tool kit. Am I missing something? Thanks in advance for your help.

Mine was the same - I simply strap my Insurance and Registration in there.

Yup, that's exactly what it's for.

good idea with the PCIII

 

[Cloggy]

My lock fits there perfectly.

While we're on the topic, I chose to remove my shock adjustment tool and use the space it freed up for a small adjustable wrench and a small pair of vice-grips.

I ordered my 2007 FZ6 with the alarm option. The alarm and my PCIII, leave no room for anything else.

If you bought it new, thats where the instruction manual goes (my Us bike at least?)

I have an '06' and that's what I did, I put the registration in a baggy next to it.

good idea aussie!

I have a spare bulb for the brake light in mine currently.

I keep a can of tyreseal in case of a puncture in the middle of nowhere. Used it once too. Incidentally, if you do this wrap in a sealed bag as I had a can that leaked. Made a bit of a mess - but not too much

I have some bungees, for those sudden purchases, and my alarm disc lock. It all squishes in.

It is actually the space for the Yamaha D-lock according to the dealer I got my bike from? I have my alarm and breakdown bits in there.

Yes that is exactly what that extra space is for.

If you want to get the Yamaha lock it will strap into the extra space. Alternatively I decided to get a further reduction in my insurance premium and upgraded the factory fitted immobilizer to a full Thatchem approved system with an alarm. The alarm (Meta alarm) sound box and unit fit perfectly in here and strap in like it came straight from the factory. Of course this is another reason why yamaha have included it...they modeled it so that this alarm fits in like a glove!

Has anyone tried to modify that area under the seat to try and add more space in there?

i read something about a d lock but thought that was meant to hook into the seat base itself.
