I use it to slide my credit card under when I'm re-filling at the pre-pay gas pumps. Instead of messing around trying to put my card back some place safe, I slide it under the strap for the two minutes it takes me to fill my tank.

Other than that, I was pondering about the strap the other day as well.

I only used it to pull the bike around if I was backing it up or something. It was around where I sat though, so I took it off for comfort.

I took the strap off cause it was not really strong. and it was uncomfortable.
So i replaced with a Tugger strap, it bolts more securely to the bolts further back and its tuff! I've had to use it and the one i put on the front a couple times to get the bike unstuck.

Pulled mine off after about the 5th time removing the seat for various reasons. It's just a pain to take off and put back on. I never used it anyway.

My main use is to hold my sunglasses in place on windy days while putting gloves and helmet on. Other than that I cant find a use for it. Well except for some sorta cheerleader toe holder. oh-oh imagination startin' to go wild now!

Is this a trick question? 20 year old cheerleaders from anywhere are nice to see. As for being "into" them.........ahhhhh no. I am married and faithful!
