In my opinion the only reason the Moco changed them was because it is easy not to get the half-turn on properly. If it is properly engaged I think it is near impossible for it to turn itself loose. But it easy to think you're there when you're not. The new ones take that variable out of the equation.

BigMike..they changed them for a reason. I know from experience that you have to fuss with them to ensure you turn them fully.. very easy to think you've reached end of travel when you haven't. There is no doubt in my mind that some have not fully engaged them and thought they and they would rotate out thru vibration.

Cheapest price for the saddlebag mounting brackets
I'd like to upgrade the saddlebag mounting brackets also to the new '17 style (HD part number 90201540) but the cost of shipping is running the price up an additional 15-20$ from the cheapest source I can find and my local Harley shop doesn't stock them. I'm planning to go to Home Depot this weekend but before I do, does anybody have a good source for these?
