Consumer Description
AFTER A VERY SLIGHT BUMP, THAT LEFT NO VISIBLE MARKS, THE SINGLE LATCH THAT RETAINS THE RIGHT SIDE SADDLEBAG FAILED. THESE BAGS SET INTO SOCKETS THAT CARRY THE LOAD, BUT ARE RETAINED BY A HOOK THAT HAS TWO SMALL PLASTIC PINS THAT BEAR THE STRESS OF THE LATCH. AFTER THE BUMP, I REMOVED THE SADDLEBAG AND INSPECTED THE HOOK. IT WOULD NOT STAY IN THE SECURED POSITION, AND WAS NO LONGER ABLE TO RETAIN SADDLEBAG SECURELY. I RETURNED LATCH TO DEALER, AND THE MANUFACTURER HAS REPLACED LATCH AS A WARRANTED REPAIR. FAULTY LATCH RETAINED BY DEALER. *TR
