First I must say Hi to one and all just joined to day .Not certain if this is the right place to post this question.I have just taken delivery of a new Switchback ( first new anything in years ) after the guys had gone I was removing the rear right hand hard bag and noticed a yellow tag coming from the caliper !!! it runs down and is "trapped " behind a square !!! Now I'm not stupid ( time will tell I hear you say ) but what the hell is it ? OH the dealer is shut so no joy there until tomorrow .Can anyone help with an answer before I go nuts?

 

Hey MGmidget,

You should go over tho the Dyna form for this question. Tons of Switchback owners in that sub-forum. Mostly technical talk too.

.

 

Patience, grasshopper. Someone with a Switchback will chime in with an answer. Doesn't sound like something to go crazy about. You'll have plenty of chances for that in the future.
Welcome to the forum.

 

Photo would help but it sounds like some shipping protection device wasn't removed during the pre-delivery inspection. I would ask for a free oil change for the dealer screw up.

 

Nevil how right you are as in the past I'm certain problems will arise .Upflying my thoughts as well it just bugs me when people cant do and sign a PDI GRRRRR

 

sorry about pic size thought I had reduced them

 

Uh-oh - If you pull too hard on that yellow tab the toner will come out!

 

Anti-squeal has been suggested by others as well .After spending years in the chemical industry putting bright isolation tag on equipment to prevent accidents!! I just wonder. The dealers pondered over the pic's and are picking the bike up to have a good look. 50ish gentle miles over a couple of days let's hope I was just lucky !!!!!!!! Will post when I get a result thanks for the reply's.

 

LOL..... Love Geek Humor... I am an IT guy almost spit coffee out

Looks to me like a spacer used for assembly, just forgot to remove.

on a new bike i would be asking about it as well

 

The Dealer has just picked it up .I will post when they get back to me
