Anybody out there fabricated lock covers for the Heritage saddlebag locks to stop them leaking?
we have a fair amount of rain here and those locks leak!!
What is required is a top hat shaped plug that is wider than the opening for the lock, fits over the barrel and level with the bag top to stop water running in, if flexible enough you could push the lock button down to open the bag without removing it..... However not come across anything like what is required.
I totally agree with you and am looking at pipe plugs have found one that may work so am going to give that a try only thing is you would need to remove it to use the lock.
the problem is the water sits in the recess and fills up then leaks into the bag,

That's exactly the problem we have, does not get in when riding, more so when parked up and water sits in the recess, the silicone route doesn't seem too fully stop it once the recess fills up, thus the idea of stopping it filling up when left parked up!
