Tank bag. Especially if you have a solo tail, there's just not any real estate for bags on the solo...

Waveguides' review unclear.
Please repeat.

I put a set of the Ventura luggage on my S1, but wasn't happy with it, I returned it, it's been so long I couldn't tell you the specifics though.

I recently installed a set of detachable Kappa/Givi hard cases on my M2. It required a fair amount of work, creativity, scrap metal and a welder. This could be done similarly on an S1. Kappa/Givi makes no brackets specifically for either of these bikes, most likely because there is really nothing on the bike suitable to mount them to. The attached pictures show the main modification required, which was a mount I fab'd onto the under-seat frame several years ago for a removable passenger backrest. For the recent hard bags, I added a threaded socket to the backrest mount to accept the bolt-on bag bracket. The new bag mount required some modifying to fit there and also attach to the passenger foot pegs. In the frame picture I have grayed out the original frame tubes to more clearly illustrate what I added to support the removable backrest (yellow arrows), and now the bag mount (red arrow). I also had to relocate the rear blinkers.
