Tip: tie down the "mouse-trap" with a string or something then use a cargo-net to attach the pizza to your rack. work pretty well for me...

that's what i did. i had the rack tied down with a cord and then used the cargo net to strap the pizza and bag down...... only problem made it a little to tight. the pizza box was flimsy too, i should have put the bag in the no pet compartment so it did not squish the top of the box down.

Aawww...you got one of those cheap thin paper box. You would have no problem had it been one of those thick cardboard Domino/PapaJohn/pizza Hut box. We did this before except with 4 pizzas stacked high with buffalo wings.

I had one of those personal sized pizzas for lunch the other day. The little box they gave me for the leftovers fit perfectly in my pet carrier. It was still warm when I got it home.

I have actually thought of doing more than this. I've checked out the Domino's large pizza boxes (without the pizza just checking the fit) and they fit fine behind me on the pillion seat. It would just be a matter of using a cargo net to hold them in place. I did this checking while toying with the idea of delivering pizza on the scooter. I'd probably get a lot of requests once people found out about the unique delivery vehicle where I live. It doesn't seem totally out of the question. I'd make out like a bandit getting paid the same mileage pay that the cage delivery people get.

What do you guys, and girls, think?

.............My solution works great ...........you know those useless measuring cups that are on every bottle of detergent these days ....i of course wash it WELL, place one or two in the center of the pizza cupcake, close the lid, "buckle er up, and tally HO........it works ok, depending on the size of the cupcake .....

My apologies.

I didn't try to post my message twice. I had this happen on one of my earlier posts but was able to delete it. This time I wasn't able to delete the message. If one of the monderators could get rid of the duplicate for me I would appreciate it.

I carry a square 16" pizza box on my ET4 every Tuesday night.
I have hauled 2 boxes on top of each other.
The rear crash bar foot pegs help a lot.
No bungee cords required.
Your ankles keeps the pizza from sliding off.
Never have made any road kill pizza yet.
Have done this on vintage but using the rear brake smashed the cupcake.

you know it is funny you guys talking about delivering pizza on our bikes.... cause when i was strapping down the pizza all the guys at the shop were watching me tie it down as i left... they were probably having the same idea.
