I-90 through WA is boring. Get on Hwy 20 asap, say north of Spokane.. It is some of the most awesome views and good riding roads in the country. Good luck and safe riding.

Saddlebags Stuck
iron pony boyz replied to iron pony boyz's topic in Royal Star Venture Tech Talk ('99 - '13)
Alls well that ends well. A little rough housing on the bag and two of us working it the bag sprung open. Seems like a little material just made it very hard to get it to unlatch. Repeated attempts may have allowed it to work loose. So we spent the next hour installing the Stebel air horn. Pretty tight fit. Shimmed the bracket bolt with a washer to bring it off the engine, had to bend the connector on the bottom 90 degrees to clear the heat shield and placed a heat resistant rubber between the connectors and heat shield to minimize vibration which could have led to a short in the connection. Otherwise, I am a happy guy. Sincere thanks to all who took the time to advise me..Y'all rock! Hell's Canyon Motorcycle Rally had beautiful weather Friday, Sat and Sun. Nice size rally , about 500-600 motels rooms rented. Great roads to ride. I had a great time. Arrived with a group of 20 and met up with another 12 more riders. A bonus was a professional photographer got two great pictures of riding the Venture on the Tail of the Devil. -
Returning from the Hell's Canyon Motorcycle Rally, Baker City, OR, this past Sunday I may have overpacked a saddlebag and now I am unable to open the saddlebag. Perhaps some material is in the way of the latching mechanism. After a couple of days trying to place pressure at various points and having helping hands depress the "open" button I am exhausted. My research so far suggest the OEM latch mechanism has some history of sticking and remedies have ranged from cutting off the hinges (trashing the bag) to getting one latch unlocked and insert a 14 inch rod to open the second latch. Once opened, then to lube the latch. A call to my dealer, RMC, resulting in them being willing to look at it but not sure if they can help. But the next opening in the schedule is a week or more away. A journey electrician and all around mechanic friend is going to look at it today for me. He's pretty handy and has a great mechanical attitude. I am looking for any experience and advice from this forum. Thank you in advance.
