Wunderlich tail bag question

Is it possible to strap a full cover on top of the Wunderlich tail bag. I want to use it for commuting. I would like to stuff my 9" square soft lunch pail and jacket inside the bag and strap the full cover on top. Since I sold my K75, my "S" is my new commuter. My "K" bike gave me 18 reliable years of service, I hope this "S" is up to the task.

I have the WUnderli$h tail bag. What do you mean by a 'full cover' - the seat cowel?

Garage
the lunch pail and jacket are an easy fit.
when you use the expando-zipper, the bag opens up quite large.
my geza bike cover, a day's worth of clothes, lunch, 2 waters, sunglasses, sandals, etc will all fit inside.

not sure what a "full cover" is either, but i'll betcha it'd fit in there with your lunchpail and jacket.
it's a good tailbag. i've stressed mine out a few times (sit on to close zipper, etc...) and it hasn't broken yet.

one tip: buy at least one spare seat cowling screw from the dealer. the tailbag has leather straps, and they like to ever-so-slowly loosen the two mounting screws. or you'll forget to tighten them up. either way, get yourself properly screwed!

I have a large bike cover that I used for my K75. It covered the whole bike including the bags. That is what I meant by a "full cover". Thanks guys. That spare screw is a good idea.

Yes my bike cover fits over the back, as long as it is not fully expanded. Wondering why you would leave the bag on etc. as it has no locks.
