RE: How do you Open The Hard Bags!!!
I gotta admit, I would never have asked that question on a forum--those bags would have sat in the garage or been butchered by me trying to get them open before I'd have asked.

RE: How do you Open The Hard Bags!!!
That is one sharp Road King !! Those black bags just set that thing off.
It is pretty much a no-brainer opening those things. The day I borrowed my friends Ultra, I was concerned the one side didn't latch, soI locked em. I asked him afterward, he said both bagger's he's had were that way and he never had one come open.

Are you serious?
I'll pretend you are.
Lift the latch all of the way up. Push the lid to the 'inside' of the bag. Lift the lid towards you.
Reverse the process to close them.
Not trying to be a smart-*** here...but if you really had to come to a computer to get this answer...I'm not sure you should be on a bike.

He and his crew started reading the manual
and after 45 minutes I got a call with the answer.
Sorry to dissapoint you, but youdo need
a degree in engineering to operate the latch.
