Retractable cord for the tour pak lid
« on: July 27, 2010, 06:26:13 PM »
Great idea.  Now you don't have to tuck in the cord before you close the tour pak.  It replaces the existing flex cord.  Looks easier to install than even the tour pak hinges.

That was one of the little gadgets I noticed right away also.  Already on order (it sucks sometimes to have four tour paks......).

I'm thinking of getting one of these and mounting the ends to the toilet seat and a clamp over the tank.  To make an automatic seat lowerer with an HD logo :2vrolijk_21: !

Totally amazing.  I sure hope that thing is a lot stronger and more durable than it looks in the pictures.  Reminds me of the retractable tether they gave me with my security badge, back when I had a job.  Worked OK on a lightweight badge for a while, but they did tend to wear out over time.  When one of you gets it, check for country of origin.  Any bets on China?

I'm thinking that the MoCo is missing out on a real winner by not offering pneumatic struts instead.  Just think, they could install electrically operated latches to go with the keyless entry system, and all you'd have to do is press a button and the lid would open automatically.

Might consider chroming your seat to complete the look
