Backpack dissapears when you ride a quad bike, motorbike or in general a vehicle with no back support
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

I revisited Old Man DLC because I remember a few years back never got a chance to finish it so I'm exploring a variety of backpacks available in the game. I travel via quad bike around the island and one really unpleasant sight here is that my backpack is not visible. It's pretty bothersome.

The backpacks in vehicles (not just quads) are generally hidding to prevent clipping issues.
For example sitting in a seat with back support, you wouldn't want your backpack glitching through it.

In the Quad's, its also hidden because a Quad is a two-person vehicle. You don't want your backpack to clip through the person behind you. This is intentional.
The game has no motorbikes, if a mod adds a motorbike, that's on them to configure whether to hide the backpack.
