You need to find a place underneath the monocoque body. If worse comes to worst attach them to the 'shark' fins.

Impossible under the body there is nothing too attach to.. they slip back into the wheelwell... shark fins ? you mean on the front plastic ? That for sure is not a great place at least not on the s150

When I attached mine on the GTS I used the side stand attachment point and the shark fins on the right if you are sitting on the scooter.

Howard, I copped out and just clipped those straps together. Not a great solution, not the intended attachment, but it works.

the Termoscud is great in the weather we've been having.

David i have been using your method but its a bit scary as it goes on top of the wheel plastic cowl ... i'm thinking it may interfere with the steering. There has too be another way to attach it properly. Could it be that the scud we have and sold for the 150 is generic and just fits poor quality ?

And what about the two yellow straps. At least they have proper connectors but i'm not sure where those go either. I attached mine on the inside just below the key hole...

All in all the scud keep me dry and warm. Its a game changer is you ride in foul or cold weather....

I think the yellow straps are actually designed to hold the rolled up Termoscud when it is attached to the scooter but not needed.

The clips on the blue straps on my scooter fits onto a ridge of steel under the scooter as shown in the photo. There are no holes that it fits into, they just clip on.

You are missing the third strap which joins the two side straps. it has the pictured clip at one end and a half moon shaped bit at the other end. Your two clips attach to the half moon, then you use the clip at the other end to attach under the body to the rear. You will find an opening underneath that it will hold to. I can't post photos now or I would take a pic for you.

Ok, now were getting somewhere. I have that third strap. Its been sitting in a drawer for two seasons. That makes sense and if i find a place for the clip too attach it will work.

Thanks TM and all who helped figure this out with me.

It's easy actually - attach the two blue straps to the d-ring on the third strap. The clip on the third strap just attaches to the bodywork underneath the scoot, in front of the centre stand. Get on your knees and you'll easily see where it does. I'd take a pic for you, but my Scud isn't attached to the scoot right now.

MV truly rocks.

Thanks to this thread, and the thread that Tom linked to, I bit the bullet, lay down on the garage floor this morning, and clipped the two bottom straps where they actually belong on the GTS.

It felt good.

Thanks guys!
