    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Tool pouch strap question (real dumb)

Guys,
How the heck does the tool pouch strap attach to the hooks inside the rear compartment. I only see one hook? If someone can post up a pic, that would be awesome!

I have a GS, not a Harley.
 
I have a gs also but like to carry more tools than the little compartment under my seat can hold.I wasnt refering to any bike in particular,just an idea thats all.I have a fairing on my bike so i bought a leather tool pouch to go on the back under my luggage rack,it also looks good there.I always need more tools than I can carry anyway!
 
The hooks are set up differently on my bike, but looking at your picture I would try this:

Look or feel under the indentation in the front of the tool carrier to see if a hook is submerged in there out of sight. You may have to lift the carrier a bit if you can.

tconroy, do you have one of those neat leather toolbags with "Steal Me" printed on it. Some come without the printing, but as you said, it looks good so it shouldn't escape notice.:)

I tried that. Under the "indentation" is a straight tab about .125" long. If you hook the rubber strap there, and pull to connect to the other hook, the strap immediately comes undone. There is no "hook" on that tab. I am real confused.
 
No mine doesnt say steel me,but if I know Im in a place where that might happen I take it off and put it in my fairing that locks.
