A few months back a friend of mine was telling me about how he had rode his freshly painted Street Glide over to his local bar for a drink. After spending about an hour inside the bar he came out to find that someone had stolen one of his sadllebags. Can you believe that! Someone was chicken *** enough to steal a saddle

Well, Gordon Lockdown also offers a seat lock that covers the seat screw preventing any joe-schmuck from walking by with a screwdriver and snatching your seat. Two simple products that can save you lots of grief and money.
