Re: storage space
Sounds like a good idea. I'm in a similar position with the Nomad but I'm bolting some old ammo boxes to the rear so I can lock my bits and bobs in.

Re: storage space
No room for storage in mine, I'll just about manage to fit a fire extinguisher in!

From my experience women carry most things in their handbags, so i wouldn't be too worried....
I certainly need to fit a fire extinguisher into walle after my exploits during the last few weeks...Burnt out the wiper motor wiring & got nice & high for a couple of hours !! On bank holiday monday i managed to burn 2 t-shirts at the same time, along with most of my beard & a little bit of my eyebrows trying to get the t-shirts off ! Be warned, dont wear an old work shirt (covered in oil, soaked in petrol & cellulose thinners), then start the angle grinder up (point the sparks away from your t-shirt, i didn't...) & then remark about how hot the weather is while your t-shirt is on fire ! Sheesh it had taken me 15yrs to grow some of those chest hairs....
