Rear Door on BFT
We just received our BFT from the factory today. We love it. One question though, the rear door is very hard to open from the inside yet from the outside it opens a bit better. Any suggestions at what to look at or should I jsut take it in for service. I still need the papers to license it though and that is 2 weeks away.
We had a loud squeal on the rear door of our BFT. I tried oiling everything in sight to no avail. Then I saw a solution on this forum but I don't remember who posted it. Put two or three wraps of black electrical tape on the post for the door lock that sticks out of the door frame. Mine hasn't squealed since I did this and the tape has lasted for two seasons with more to go.John S. wrote:Well we got it licensed and on the road and the door opening and now it squeeks alot. Is there some solution to this.
When I picked up my 26RSB, the door rattled during the test drive. The dealer adjusted the latch (silver piece on the door frame) to pull the door in tighter when it latched. No more rattle.
With the door closed, try pressing or pushing on the door and see if there is any movement.
Also, the screen door rubbed on mine on the lower corner, the side away from the hinges. I put a small piece of velcro (just the soft side) on the door and it stopped it from rubbing also. I could see where the white was rubbed off the door edge from rubbing.
