Abstract
A method of mounting a storage unit to a vehicular apparatus, such as a motorcycle, includes the step of securing a cantilevered mounting member having a mounting plate to the frame of the vehicular apparatus. A storage device can be connected to the mounting plate to stabilize the storage device as the vehicular apparatus is in motion. As a preferred embodiment, the method of mounting begins with the removal of a foot peg from a motorcycle to expose the foot peg mounting bracket to which the mounting member is affixed. The mounting plate of the mounting member can be used to secure articles to be transported by the vehicular apparatus with or without a separate storage device.
