I just got some S3 bags (circa 1998) and my Battle To Win magazines are packed away.
Does anyone have the part number for the updated latches so that they don't open up unexpectedly
and
What's the secret to keeping the bags from launching themselves into a ditch when en route? One of these bounced down the road for the previous owner.
Thanks
Steve Ford

Steve:

Battle2Win Volume 2 Issue 3 Page 51, "BUT" there
is no PART NUMBER ...

Have the up-grade which is PN 61359-99Y ...

Have a 97S3T and the only trouble "i" have ever had with the bags is be before "i" took the
stickers off the latches ... People would read the LIFT HERE and break the latches ...
REMOVED THE STICKERS AND NO MORE TROUBLE !!!

Have the up-date kit, but have never put it on !!!

As for the lids launching themselves into a ditch the ABOSOULTE FIX for that problem is
TO KEEP THEM LATCHED AND "LOCKED" !!!
