    Happy coincidence?

    Just found out that when the bike is in the locked steering position access to the front cubby is closed off. Nice for cubby security.

    I keep a big black rubber spider in mine for security. Still nice to know they can't get to it easily.

    You mean the cubby that locks? I wish the cubby on the front left locked too.

    Yes, when the steering is locked the handlebars end up positioned over the cubby. Maybe a determined thief could wiggle or break the door off but that handlebar position acts as a decent deterrent. Long time wing owners probably already knew this.

    I'm new to Wing's too. This is my first. I actually thought it was a pita that the bars blocked the cubby door cuz you have to unlock the bars to get the cover off.

    I fixed that when I got the Kury cup holder cubby. It doesn't lock anyway.

    I did pick up, over the weekend, a saddle bag lid organizer. Now I have a place to put all my little junk that was floating around everywhere and not locked up.

    Good idea. I sold my saddlebag liners with my earlier Wing, now have get another set. Plus I'm going to find out about a tool kit...Honda's or make one from scratch. They get 'em in Canada, why not us?

    FYI, the saddlebag storage pockets are sold EACH, not in pairs. I thought I was getting two but nope.
