Hello folks! Just wanted to share what i did to my GeeZee, I did this sometime in early fall and so far it works great!. Now i don't have to worry about getting a saddle bag because my little bag works great and it also gives me a little back support. total cost?? $5 and change!! bought some brackets at Home Depot, I used the passenger seat some wood screws and 2 pieces of zip ties and wala its done..

I still ride her once a week until starts snowing then I will have to park her, is it easy to take the battery off?? the battery tender I got does not have the plug in kind so i do have to take off the battery..

I like your penny tech solution. Thanks for sharing the info and great pics.

You can get a proper permanent charging line for the Battery Tender. Install the charging line and topping up the battery is easy. Once a month I just carry the tender down to Lynda's bike and plug in for an hour. You can order one from Battery Tender for a few bucks and life is just so much easier you will wonder how you did without it in the past.
