Locking glove box

[Greg H.]

Well I'll be a son of a... seacook! They do, and it does!

HEY!!! Who started the BBQ without me??

I checked it out on my 10 day old RT-S today. I verified the glove box was locked, turned and locked my handlebar. Once; it locked the glove box. But; only once.
I will add that to the list of things for my dealer to address when I take it in for my first service.
Not a really long list. But; some things they will have to fix.

Otherwise; the first 700 miles have been quite excellent.

My RT has about 5000 miles and glove box lock stopped working at 10 miles!! Anyway, dealer fixed it during last service. Cable came off of the switch end.....hard to fix yourself - I think!

I have a 2012 RTL and the box won't latch, never mind locking, it won't even latch. It happened when we were at Glacier last week. Bought some Velcro and fixed it for the time being. I am becoming a little disenchanted with all the maintenance required. Any idea why it won't latch?

I see this is a way old thread. I have never tried locking my handlebars. I don't worry about locking the glove box either. If someone wants in--they will just break it with a screwdriver. They are not going to get anything from mine anyway.

It doesn't latch. It stays popped open. I don't care if it locks. I agree it's not secure, locked or not. I just want to get it latched and forget it.
