Hi! I just got a 97 Intruder 800 with 8k miles on it which I already love! I've discovered the tool compartment on the sissy bar, but I can't get it open. The key will turn halfway, then it seems to stick and won't turn any farther. Any suggestions as to how to get it open?

I also got 2 smooth plastic....uh, "things" - kinda like keys, but with no teeth. Anyone ever heard of something like that, maybe have any idea what the heck they're for? Just curious.

Gotta say, I bought this bike for my 56th birthday. I haven't ridden since 1976 - and I put 500 miles on it in the first week! It's every damn bit as much fun to ride now as it was back in the 70's when I rode my 650 BSA.

Thanks!
