Hey Howard.., I've got an idea  :idea:  Jesse wouldn't give up his TP but maybe you could talk him out of his saddlebag?  Do you think you could help Howard out Jesse  :nixweiss:  If it wasn't covered by warranty Howard I would tell you to look on ebay, cause someone has for sale that same bag in your color.

Thanks Judy.  I believe it's pretty straight forward that they will cover it.  Got a good dealer so that helps, too.

REPAIR.......hell no Howard, no way should you settle for a repair. Reuse the top...OK. New bottom would be the least they could do. Good Ludk!!!

Sorry to read this, Howard. That sucks. They absolutely should replace the bag! A repair will never look as good as a new bag.

I'm going to check my amp before I ride again...

Got back late last night.  Ken had it right (N Georgia Hawg) it was a miserable ride but made it and Ginger didn't miss a beat even with a hole in her side.
Spoke with SMHD this morning.  They got my pics from Friday and want to look/take their own to send to the moco and get the bag replaced.  I am still miffed but glad it's being addressed and replaced.

Make sure to check your amp mount folks. As I stated , the 2013 CVOs are set up the same way. I can't be the only one that has ever had this problem/issue. Just hope it does not happen to y'all.

Glad the Dealer is working well with you on this one, that makes it a lot less painfull, good luck I would shoot for replacement not a repair.

I find it odd that your bike didn't come with the bag liners. Maybe that's an Ultra thing. Sure would have stopped that a lot sooner.

I do believe that is an ultra thing. The lowly street glide just lives with the bare, hard sides... :2vrolijk_21:

Hay Howard, sounds as though SMHD has no issue going with a replacement, glade for ya on that one mate.
How about moco, and you didn't say what kind on replacement time your going to be looking at?...ya know
I still can't get my head around the fact they use stick back to hold an amp in place when it's mounted in such a place were it's subjected so much rapid movement.

Have a good day man, I'm on holidays weather sucks

I appreciate the thought, Judy.  Even with the damage, she didn't miss a beat on the way home.  What a bike... ;D

I was just about to mention, you guys dont have bag liners? I just re-routed my amp to the saddle bag from under the Tourpak on my Ultra and Velcro'd it to the liner and used a black velcro belt to secure it. I had no idea the Street Glides did not come with these fancy liners we get on our Ultras. You would think they would.

Thanks for the heads up, I will check my amp on Da King today.  We just got back Sunday from a 2543 mile trip to Daytona, Fort Myers and Key West.
