Ohlias Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Hi Folks Just ordered the 45L OEM top case, adaptor plate/bracket and the two 1-key parts (inner housing and cylinder). from Lings in the UK (so far they have been fantastic to deal with and the price was fair, ask for Mark). The question I have is have any of you had experience in setting up the one key system? I saw my dealer do it when the bike was being prepped two years ago and and it didn't look like fun! I'm hoping hte instructions are included, but does anyone know where to find them? I am having a hard time on the Honda PowerSports website (may be blocked at work). Thanks in advance for any answers. For those who are curious, here's what I ordered (already have the OEM rear carrier rack): 08L74-MJN-D01ZG 45L Top box - Pearl Glare White (NH-B53P) 08L73-MJM-D10 Carrier Bracket For 45L Top Box08M70-MJE-D01 1 Key Body Part08M71-MJE-D02 or 03 1 Key Components (Cylinder Inner Kit) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ridered Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 I believe they will send the instructions. It was not really that hard, but does take some patience. I ordered mine from Ling's and everything arrived quickly, and I think they included the instructions. I may still have a hard copy as well if they don't. I think you can also find the instructions for the side cases on this site, as it is the same procedure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer joepopp Posted September 26, 2017 Member Contributer Share Posted September 26, 2017 I tried to order a Red Top case from North West and it's been back ordered for 3 weeks. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ohlias Posted September 26, 2017 Author Share Posted September 26, 2017 Thanks! Noticed they say 2012, safe to assume they are the same for 2014 and items being purchased today...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2015vfr Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 How much was everything all together? I've been thinking about ordering one too, it would make splitting a bit easier. I've been riding with only 1 side case for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbyn Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 My brain fogged over when I saw the key set components. Some things I will pay for to have the local shop take care of a few things, this was definitely one of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PM sent - Not sure if it would be proper etiquette to discuss prices out in the open. This being said, reach out to Lings and ask for Mark Denney. He was great to work with.

I'm sure if you were to sit down and put aside presupposed inhibitions you'd get through it just fine. Quick edit: Although, getting through it one-handed might make it more of a challenge. Did not immediately consider that. It's an annoying routine but not actually that mentally challenging. My biggest impediment has always been translating those awful line drawings in instruction sheets, fiches, etc. into the mental image that I need. -Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FYI I find riding with just the large top box upsets the balance of the bike. It's much better with all the bags or none of the bags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pjcliffo Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Yes except for the balance. Did you realize that the width of the panniers is about the same as the handlebars, so if the bars fit through the panniers should too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think its mostly mental and peace of mind. I've been having issues with the stock mirrors too, theyre pretty wide and right at the height of most car mirrors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohlias Posted October 3, 2017 Author Share Posted October 3, 2017 Got all the parts together today. 1-key went suprisingly well. Really have to make sure you have the correct instructions. Mark from Lings was great to deal with. Don't hesitate to contact them, they know what they are doing. Tell him Nic sent you! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
