Tom (Brokenfixed) has a cool idea on tool storage , he has a plastic tube with threaded on ends underneath between the frame rails where the center stand would mount. Out of sight but not bad to get to.

Not to mention a "Kick-ass", emptied out drill box for the tag mount! (IF you'd go that way).

And you may see me tonight

I carry my tools, parking puck & such in a tail bag. The "luggage rack" proved to be almost useless as the angle of the sissy bar keeps you from putting anything square (12 pack of beer?) on it. I actually shortened it to keep that temptation away!
