Stuck Saddle Latch

Hi everyone,

I'm used to store my disc lock in the small compartment under the passenger saddle. Today I noticed that the latch seems jammed as the lock may have shifted forward during heavy breaking. So I'm kinda stuck as don't know how to release the bloody thing ! Please don't suggest launch control and wheelies to move the disc lock rearward...

Any ideas lads ?

Thanks !

 

Hi,

This is a 2016 speed triple,
There is a cable, but it must be routed inside some sort of rigid hose.
I can't see any option to get my hands on that cable

Cheers,

 

I did a couple runs on the street down the corner, it has several speed bump. With a bit of luck it finally moved out of the way, so problem solved
Thanks guys for all your suggestions,

Cheers,
Rémi

 

Hi guys,

Duly noted for the Kusmi tea request ;-)
I'm considering installing a DIY bracket somewhere on the frame to carry the disc lock while on the go as per dozer dad Mentioned.

Cheers,

 

Hi mate,

Agreed, but I already own an abus disc lock that I don't intend to change, since this one is approved by my insurance company. Overseas security ratings like thatcham etc.. aren't always recognised by insurances (I live in France).
ThAt being said, I have access to CAD + laser cutting + press bend + welding + powder coating at work, so I'll have some fun making a bespoke item.

I'll try to get it done this week,

Cheers

 

Ha?

What type of parts?

 

Do I have to ask my boss to relocate my office in Northampton?

 

It took me a couple trials. Just enough to keep my neighbours entertained..
