[QUOTE="mcatrophy, post: 1245675, member: 3187"] I suspect it did, but wasn't tight on the bike, so you didn't feel it go over-centre. As far as I am aware, the bag mechanism today is the same as it was back in 2001 when the earliest FJRs hit the road. On my '06, where the bags weren't too firm, I stuck a thin piece of rubber (cut from an old inner tube) up into the slot where the tab goes to firm up the latching. Definitely enhanced that over-centre feel. [/QUOTE]
