Kyoshiskip Posted May 29, 2017 Report Share Posted May 29, 2017 (edited) After a few times of disconnecting my passenger's seat belt, I adopted a new technique I refer to as the roll over. With my thumb facing forward on the release mechanism, once released, I roll my hand backwards to the top of the bar as it passes past the seat belt latches. I then roll my hand down to the grip as the bar moves forward. Once latched, it allows me to place my thumb nail into the locking mechanism to ensure the gear is locked. It works well and yes timing is everything! Edited June 4, 2017 by Kyoshiskip 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steingar Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 I have a very, very simple solution to this problem which I occasionally suffer in my M20c. The solution is the S in GUMPS. That is all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is OK, but for me, it was easier to stop the thing from happening altogether (unlatching of belts) than to keep fixing the thing when it happened (S in GUMPS = relatch the now-unlatched belt).
