I was shocked to see my rear latch on the tour-pak had broken. I had to maintain my composure because it wasn't broken when I'd used it last, and I know my wife was the last to open and close it this morning.
This is the bottom hinging piece and it cracked all the way through on one side of the hinge. I did some research and found that I'm not the only one with this problem, and apparently the '07 models in particular have had this problem.
Does anybody know the part number for these hinges, so I can order a set from Chicago HD or Zanotti's?

 

hinge on the left side of the pak, or latch that locks it shut? 90649-07 is the latch. If it's a hinge, you could have one of mine as I just upgraded to the new kit

 

The hinge latch that locks it shut. Throttle side of the bike.

 

EGlidekid,
Was going to ask you to post a pic of that trailer with the bike. Sweet lookin' ride. Did you buy the trailer new and can Bushtec color match?

Oh yea, retired AF too, both kids now serving in the AF.

Gary

 

FYI - not confined to only '07 models. Broke one on my '95 EG Classic too. Sometimes stuff breaks.

 

Gary, first off, thanks for your service and for your kids. They're gonna be better off in life for having served. Secondly, thanks for the compliment. Yes we bought it new, and yes, Bushtec will match the color. It was so good it looked like it was painted by HD at the factory the same day as the bike. PM me if you want more info or pics. Also see my gallery.

 

Don't know if ya saw the pn# in my post because I edited it, but the pn# is there for ya.

 

Sorry Dawg, had an aged moment.
I ended up buying 2 full sets on ebay, won the bidding at $36 for the pair delivered but the guy taps the holes so you don't need to use self tapping screws, plus he includes new miniature bolts as well.
I paid about what you would pay at a dealer for them, but the nearest to me is 90 miles away, plus I got two top sections of the latches also, which doesn't come with the HD part.
I'm thinking I'll replace both latches and keep the old one as a spare.
