Sealing trunk area seams

I noticed on my new to me Swing, there is a gap between the tail area panels on the boot..toward the back. I’m wondering if if this will allow moisture when riding in wet weather, and how to seal it…tape?

Hi Hop.

Any chance of a couple of photos to ponder at please.

Thanks in advance.

Will get them later

These are looking down and aft in the boot, under seat.

Hi Hop

It would appear that your Swing has lost a couple of inner covers.

Hope this helps

Correct. I removed them to see what was there…which is when I saw the gaps. So the same question remains, should these be sealed?

Hi Hop.

I think if they (gaps) were meant to be sealed Honda would have mentioned it in the owner's guide and the workshop manual.
Perfect place to stash your recreational.
Personally, I have never found anything wet under seat, I learnt years ago if it can get wet it will so all cargo gets a plastic bag anyway.

So,  not a problem…thanks

I agree with the above. Not likely to be a problem, but if it bothers you I suppose tape (or better yet) Alien tape would seal it and be easily removable. I will take a look at mine and see if there are gaps...
