Got my letter in the mail today for the worldwide saddle bag recall. Bit late considering they already tried to fly off. Spoke to the guy at Peter Stevens, "we dont have parts yet..." guess the race tape and check befre every ride will have to do for a while.

Bolt them on, $5.00 job with stainless screws

What year bikes and models does the bag recall affect?

Thanks Pauly that'll be one of the first things I do. I'll do it at the same time I put the four point docking system on the back

New bike is a road glide but not with me yet. Paid a deposit and should pick it up within a week. Ill go into details after I pick it up as I don't want to jinx the purchase until it's finalised ??

Yep, got the letter as well the other day. Good old Oz Post, only took 13 days to arrive.

Checked with Canberra Harley, they are waiting on the parts as well.

I changed them myself a while ago for piece of mind.

My Street Glide is in now for its first service and check up, as the right bag came off last weekend. Not a great look as i was in a HOG convoy just as well the bag stayed with the bike, hooked with the speaker harnes still connected.

Have to say, that Harley have come to the party and will replace all damaged parts at no cost.

I will change the way the bags are held on, as there is no way i will ever use the factory fixing system. I couldnt go through that sinking feeling again seeing my bag dragging along the road. 

 

I,ve got the bolts on order Pauly .

Did see on an episode of HD TV last night , that a bloke with a '15 CVO Ultra  ( not Mickle ) lost his pannier , said he lost the washer and the clip came loose .
