Abstract: Disclosed is a low-profile storage apparatus for a motorcycle. The low-profile storage apparatus comprises a base attachable to a motorcycle. The low-profile storage apparatus also comprises a shell supported about the base, and movable between a stowing position and an open position. The low-profile storage apparatus further comprises at least one storage compartment supported by an underside of the shell, the at least one storage compartment having an opening accessible upon the shell being positioned in the open position.

Abstract: A method for building a fence includes forming footings, the footings including a post therein which extends upwardly above a top of the footings. Front and back forms are positioned adjacent to the posts and extending between the posts, defining a void between the front and back forms. At least a portion of the void is filled with a setting material. The forms are removed after the setting material is substantially set, leaving a panel extending between the posts formed from the substantially set setting material.

Abstract: A positioning system operable about a motorcycle for selectively locating a utility, such as a storage utility or a back rest utility, in one of a plurality of positions about a rear fender of the motorcycle. The positioning system includes a mounting assembly having first and second side mounts securable about opposing sides of the rear fender. The positioning system also includes a carriage configured to support the utility, and which is slidably coupled to the mounting assembly, and which has a range of travel defined by a centerline of the carriage that translating at least the entire length of the side mounts between a most forward position and a most rearward position. The positioning system further includes a riser operable to elevate the carriage above an upper surface of the rear fender, and a locking device that allows the carriage to be locked in a plurality of positions above the rear fender of the motorcycle.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for providing a modular fairing configured to attach to a front portion of a motorcycle. The modular fairing 110, 300 includes a fairing frame member 120, 301, multiple coupling portions and at least one flexible fairing cover portion 150, 304. The fairing frame member may include multiple support members 121, 302 operable to be removably coupled to each other to form the fairing frame member. The multiple coupling portions extend from the fairing frame member and are configured to removably couple the frame member to the front portion of the motorcycle. The at least one flexible fairing cover portion includes a face portion and an attachment portion and is operable to be removably attached to and at least partially cover the fairing frame member. With this arrangement, the fairing frame member is detachable from the front portion of the motorcycle and operable to be folded or reconfigured 310 into a smaller configuration 312 for storing.
