Dear all,
finally i can drive my new XB12XT(mfg date Oct 2008):

I retired her on Friday afternoon, with all her bags installed.
I decided to take her home to remove side bags.
When i uninstalled them, one of the lock that block them on their frame,it's detached from its seat on the side of the bag: i can't believe!!!!It was attached with rivets(like Top case:there are only 3 rivets instead 4!!!)!!

Someone of You know if exist a recall about Hepco & Decker bags?

This evening i bring faulty's bags to my dealer...

Regards.

Yours is the first bag that I've heard of with that particular problem. I don't think that one bad bag is cause for a recall. It is cause for warranty repair/replacement, though. I don't think your dealer will have any trouble setting things straight.

There is no recall.

Make sure they use STEEL rivets, not aluminum.

I never did like those bags. YMMV.
