You'd think the wind and pipes would cover that up, but I asked because a buddy of mine has a dyna super glide with pretty loud pipes and a cam swap, and at the time I had a Road King with Big radius 2-2. Even with the bikes accelerating to highway speeds, he had a squeaky buckle on a saddle bag that you could hear over all of it. Took us both forever to figure out what it was.....

Well...I took a leap of faith when I ordered mine. I had no clue how that latch worked by the pictures. I figured you guys could get a better clue if there was a good pic. The latch seems very secure. I would not be at all concerned with this bag opening while riding. I hope to get my mounting hardware fab'd this weekend. I will create a new post and get some good pics of how I do it. Maybe I will even make a few extras to sell for those that are buying the same bag.

I bet that latch is a bit easyer/faster to get into then the standard buckle.

And I dig that green bike on the GL website.

I did the opener mod. Used a section of old tag as a backing plate.

I love this bag. I like that I'm able to stuff my jacket in there and my pockets are no longer packed with junk.. These bags are great. No signs of any scraping with lowered Deuce
This particular bag has quick disconnects under the buckles, so its a split second to open or close without having to open buckles . been using this bag for about 9 months now..
