The SO is looking for a place to store gum, Kleenex,.....etc.... things that she can reach during the ride. I do have the BakUp backrest and thought maybe I could attach something to this, but I was hoping you guys had a better idea.
What are you guys using to keep the SO happy during the ride?
Thanks!

If it's a long ride, she usually puts on a small fanny pack and keeps her things in there.

If you have armrests,(which make the SO happy) small packs can be attached to the armrests.............
I believe GW even makes a armrest specific bag ................

We took a small fanny pack (the straps tuck inside a pocket on it) and put a velcro patch on the back of it -- wife sewed it on. Put the other half of the patch on the back of the Backup rest. She loves it! Plus, she appreciates the additional "padding" for when we hit that unseen bump in the road!

Yep, a good sized fanny pack is the way to go.
We've learned it's better for me to wear it, since she has the pup, and she can access it easily.
Our Cavalcade used to have a glove box on top each side case and she likes our current setup just fine.

Here is one solution, hard to reach while the bike is moving but sure makes momma happy when she is choosing what color dress & matching shoes to take along...;)

I just asked my wife if she could ever in her life see herself with a fanny pack. "F_CK NO" was the response in the other room. :histerica :histerica :histerica

Get an Olympia Motorsports Jacket (or similar) with lots of pockets. My wife has different 'stash' in each one of her pockets - AND mine!

I don't know what kind of riding gear your SO wears, but most quality riding jackets have more pockets than we know what to do with. If she's riding without a good jacket . . . I don't know what to tell you.

You might be able to fit something between the passenger seat and the top box (even easier if you've moved the top box back). Might not be the most convenient while in transit, but it's a cheap solution! :)

She also knows I don't need any help looking like a big dork. :D
