The S10 doesn't have much "under the seat" storage capacity.
Under the seat I could fit a tire repair kit and the tool kit space behind the right panel can only just hold a slightly upgraded tool kit (I've added a multi tool and a small flashlight to the OEM kit).
Besides the tool kit and the tire repair kit I like to bring at least my disk brake lock, a set of ROK straps and something to clean my helmet visor every time I go for a ride, so it would be nice to be able to permanently store that on the bike as well.
I considered several options.
In the end I decided on a Pelican case 1150 mounted behind the pillion seat. It has just the right size for my needs, it's very sturdy, 100% water proof, lockable and I don't find that it looks out of place on the bike - the last was important for me, as I really like the look of the S10 and don't want to spoil it.
I removed the small plastic cover behind the pillion seat and used its bolts and plastic spacers to mount the Pelican case.
Very sturdy mounting:
Besides the things earlier mentioned the case have room for a bit more - eg. a small camera, a wallet, a phone etc.
This is an example of what will easily fit in the case:
Here is some pictures of the bike with the case mounted:
