Did you receive another fixed one

Thought I would share some of the pictures of the issues I have had with my corbin bags that I returned to the company. As I said in my prior post, hinges do not latch appropriately causing marks on metal plate and paint chipping, major gaps in the door causing leaking. I hope that Corbin does the right thing and replaces both of them as this is how they came to me early last summer.
In answer to your question about the space, they are very spacious!!! Just wish they could get their design figured out!:sour::gaah:

i had same exact as I mentioned here in old post.
Did Corbin fixed it?

I ordered my corbin bags through our local dealership and we still have not heard if the two bags are being replaced under warranty. I can't believe it if I get stuck with any bill over this! In repsonse to your question about locking, both of mine locked after you pushed down twice on them so the latch actually fell into the correct hole on the other end! It appears that the latches were too small for the lid and were not lined up appropriately to latch properly when you lowered the lid. Once you pushed again on it, the lid would latch, but because they were not aligned correctly, I had a bunch of stratches on my chrome plate and the rest of the lid didn't seal all the way and leaked when riding in the rain!!

Glad to hear the prior posting received his new bags and they work! Any suggestions on next steps as it is very difficult to get a timely response from this company? Myself and the dealership have provided everything that has been asked of us.

mine even when locked, with speed they opened. And that is when I called Corbin direct and gave threat to take it further for my safety. Also, when you lock it, put your finger between body and lid, it will open.
I still can't believe that Corbin after all these complains, are ignoring them and keep sending the bad ones. It is not cheap bags...
I'm going to post new one, big cry/shout to Corbin. It may stop new F3 owners from facing same issues.

Did you receive it

I ordered my Corbins Oct 16 while at Daytona. After the 3rd ship date of Jan 15 that didn't happen I emailed Corbin and received this Email.

"Spoke to the fiberglass team. Paint shop had to redo something on
your order. It was reprepped and getting ready for reshoot.
should be monday-tuesday"

Ain't sounding good but hoping for the best.

Did you receive yours?

Update

I ordered the Corbin bags from my dealer. When they arrived one of the bags bodywork looked as though they took their finger and smeared cauling around the latch and then painted over it. The other has a 5/8" gap on the lid near the back where the latch is. Looks like they came out of the mould wrong. No adjustment can be made. I waited 9 weeks for mine. Now they are back at the dealership waitng on an answer from Corbin on how to move forward. For 2K, these things should be perfect. I hope that Corbin does the right thing here and rectifies this in a timely manner.

Any update regarding your bags?
we are all posting under Corbin $2000 saddlebags- not fair treatment.

F3 Saddle Bags and Backrest

Where there is a will, there is a way!

I have ordered my Corbin Saddle Bags(10 weeks ago) and I have a BRP passenger backrest.
What's the secret to mounting the two?

Just follow the instructions. Really quite easy. ( I was able to do it! ) You will have to replace the passenger hand rail bolts with the Corbin studs. Do them one at a time and you shouldn't have any problem and won't have to disassemble anything. Good luck! :thumbup:

Did you receive yours?

Nope, I didn't
Talked to the Daytona store for the 5th time on Feb. 4th where I ordered them.
They said they would call me the next day with some info.
Haven't heard a thing and not holding my breath.
It will be 4 months in another week, getting ready to call my CC company.

How do you keep these from getting into the rear wheel? Any pics?

:clap:

Dont hesitate. Call your cc company and get a refund. No if's, and's, or but's, they will come delivered with problems. I had a second set delivered and they had the same issue as the first. Horrible QA department.

The bags have a stiff panel facing the wheel that helps keep its shape. As well though, I remove the handles and made small plates of pvc type material with holes drilled that allow them to mount to where the handles are. But the straps are designed to keep them from moving at all.
