Hey ditch your trunk and use a school backpack. You have both arms through the backpack and more stuff to put in it.

Nope
my back is too old for that
the trunk is useful and easy to load n unload
I'm beyond the 'looking kool' stage and more about function

I used to use a backpack all the time on my old scooter. I would tie the straps around the luggage rack. It worked out very well for me. The new scooter came with a large trunk and I gotta say ,a trunk is waaaay better not to mention easier than any backpack ever invented ;DBesides that, I installed led running, brake, and directional lights on it so it's safer too  |

Just in case someone lifts your scooter and steals it or you crash you still got your bacpack with everything you love in it...
I agree the trunks are cool ride on folks

howdy, it may be a good idea to keep a bungee going each way around the trunk so that if it does break off it won't actually fall off while moving.
lotsa miles and smiles to ya

Trunk installed properly is safer than a backpack. Even an additional 10 lbs in a backpack can put a lot of stress on the body. The protection provided by a good riding jacket with double back protection could be quickly undone by a few hard objects in a backpack.
I believe "All About Safety" is for promoting safety not eliminating it.

Trunk and saddlebags, the "badge of honor" for old bikes everywhere.
I can't imagine not have all the storage.
