I've been having some problems with my bike ever since i put a tshirt under the seat compartment.

it seems as though i blocked something, because my bike is rough and will stall at 6k rpm.

can anyone help?

 

I'll see if I can beat Chris to the punch! hahaha!

Sounds to me that you're blocking the air intake. Have you just tried removing the shirt yet?

 

Agree, the intake is getting blocked.

 

There really isn't a suitable underseat compartment and you probably did knock loose a vacuum hose or something.
If you want to carry stuff on your bike, I'd get a set of saddlebags or a trunk bag. Some bikes will have an underseat compartment, but the 500 really doesn't. There's a little plastic envelope stuck on the bottom of seat where you can store your speeding tickets, but I wouldn't put a shirt under there.
Good luck and let us know how it goes.
Peace!

I've been looking at buyingthose cortech saddle/tail bags for some time. How do you like them, Chris?

 

He likes them a lot. Plenty of room for anything you need for a long ride, including a 2 week ride up the coast to canada and back. Of course when he gets back he will say it a lot more eloquently thanI ever could and include a lot of really great pics from his rides on Lolita.

I love your posts CC

 

If your talking about the rear seat I can not see what harm that would do. I used to keep my gun there and shirt if I did not have my tank bag on. If there is room under your front seat I do not think it is a compartment to carry anything. But then again I may just not know anything,

I like the one reply asking if you removed the shirt yet

Post some pics.

 

Hola Mark (and gracias Prom).
The Cortech Sport bags rule pretty hard. They can carry:
~a week's worth of groceries, OR
~one night's worth of firewood plus kindling, OR
~5 gallons of used motoroil, OR
~2.75 cases of cheap, canned beer (cans separated individually of course), OR
~enough clothes for a 5-day trip, OR
~about half of a dead hooker (if she wasn't overly rotund), OR
~enough pornography to last for a nuclear winter
They're spacious, capacious, bodacious, aerodynamic and slicker than owl****. If I had money to invest, I'd buy stock in Tourmaster. These bags are the cat's-meow and the dog's-bollocks. They're admittedly neither lockable nor watertight, but they come with rain covers and they're easily removed by unclipping three buckles, undoing four bungee-hooks and bringing them into your motel room at night (which is convenient if you're carrying a pile of pornography or body parts from a dead hooker.)
Peace!
