What year bike do you have? The reason ask is, the latch springs prior to 2010 were weak and were prone fail. The new springs PN:90707-00A are much more heavy duty. When you close the latch with these spring they snap shut.

This is what I'm talking about adjusting. Bend the tabs up just a bit and it will tighten up the latch.

My tabs are bent so far up, my lids lock so tight I sometimes can't tell if they are locked or just hard as hell to open!
