Loose System Case Lock

I have a 1994 K1100RS. The lock tumbler in one of my case latches (#10) comes completely out of the housing when I turn the key.

I found the small brass lock pawl (part with open bottom at far right in photo) laying outside of the tumbler.  How do I reinsert and secure the tumbler in the barrel?

Honestly, I don't know. But in the interest of being helpful, Do you still have the other (assuming saddlebags) to take apart and study? You may have the answer there. Good luck.

As I've said before, it took me 75 years to get mine apart.

Your dealership will have a guy who can pop it apart and back together faster than you can deal a hand of blackjack.

Thanks for the feedback. A guy on one of the Harley message boards stepped me through the fix.

 I was reluctant to visit a dealer. The ones around Chicago would have charged me. My last resort would have been a locksmith.
