2011: “While traveling on I-95 south of boston my left side saddlebag flew off while I was traveling approximately 65 MPH. I did not impact any object and have never detached the saddlebag while the bike has been in my ownership (I am the original owner). This was the third time I had traveled at these speeds while on an interstate though the first time I did so in the state of massachusetts. I was willing to accept that I had done something wrong until I discovered multiple similar complaints on an online forum for owners of the same bike. …”
