I'm about ready to pay. Can't get the fucking lock cylinder into the case flush. I aligned the locking nub as per instructions AND this video. No dice. What a headache.
Hi Steve, I was reluctant to order the OEM cases for mine because my dealer wanted to charge me €200 to configure the locks. Thanks to your video, I feel ready to do it myself (and save 200.- € :-)) If you're ever in France, I'd be delighted to invite you over for a beer (or two ...). Many thanks!
That's really kind and pleases it gave you the confidence. I'm.jist back from an 8 country EUROPE bike adventure and loved it. The KTM GTbis a brilliant bike as indeed are the panniers. Here is one if the days video th-cam.com/video/egnEiS6BIxA/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for this video needed to change barrels on panniers ordered new barrels turned up with no instructions followed your vid that was the easy bit getting g old barrels out wad the tricky bit but all sorted your a life saver
I worked it out in the end. You have to undo the bottom 2 screws from inside the pannier on the locking mechanism side and the two KTM head small bolts between the inner box and the outer case. Remove the connecting cable between the 2 sides so it’s easier to manage. Slide out the locking mechanism watching for the 2 levers and springs to pop out - slide slowly you’ll see them. Unscrew the 2 retaining screws that hold the 2 halves of the locking mechanism together and then remove the lever mechanism - it’s best to do all this with the handle up in open position. The lock pin is then exposed on the barrel and you can push it down to slide the barrel out. Reverse process puts it back together - levers and springs are the fiddliest but manageable. I had to do all this because I forgot to put the O ring on when I coded the keys on the right pannier. Lesson in taking your time in the first place….
Dude ! KTM 1290 super adventure in California ... awesome video ... could not have completed without your explanation 👍 works perfectly... time for an adventure to Mexico! Later bro 😎
Hi I am upgrading my bike and wish to transfer the cases to my new bike, have you tried removing the barrels from the cases? As I plan to change the barrel config to a new key?
Steve, could you get the key out with the handles up? I'm still struggling to fathom out how to do it. My key won't come out of the lock in the carry position. 👍
I just tried mine, and you can turn the key all the way to open, so the handle pops up, then turn it back to halfway, and the key will come out ...fully unlocked
Hi steve. do you think then it's possible to change the existing locks to fit a new / different key. i'm changing my sdgt but want to keep the existing panniers.
@@stevesherlockrides even with with an empty barrel it still doesn’t go all the way in. Something isn’t right. Do you know if there are different sized barrels?
Thanks for the video. I simply cannot believe KTM / Austrians would ship a product in this state. Why would they not set up the lock barrels into the luggage at the factory? What kind of clown show is this you need to be a locksmith to install luggage on a motorcycle now days? Got to this part on my 1290 and I'm incredibly pissed off right now. Also JFC man mute the audio when fast forwarding next time.
If you want them to open with the same key that starts the bike, it has to be this way. Most of the time, the bags do not come with the bike. If yours did, then it's your dealer that you should be pissed at, not KTM. The dealer could do this for you.
This is brilliant thank you. Dealer wanted to charge me $260 to put the locks in my cases.
I only want $130 lol. Glad I could help

It did take some force from memory. Do you have a rubber mallet?

No problem
How did you get the old barrels out? I have one I need to remove and I’m making the pannier a wreck in the process

Thanks for taking the time to put this video together. Lifesaver!
It seems to have helped a few so that a few brownie points for when I nock on those pearly gates lol
Just ordered those panniers. Thanks very much for this helpful video👍
My pleasure
Dude ! KTM 1290 super adventure in California ... awesome video ... could not have completed without your explanation 👍 works perfectly... time for an adventure to Mexico! Later bro 😎
Brilliant. What are the rides like down there? A bit different from the UK I bet
Lifesaver mate, appreciate it .
This method also works for a 2020 super adventure S/R for those interested
Glad it helped pal
Nice one, same fit for the super adventure panniers. Thanks
Awesome - Thanks for the video. The instructions are OK, but a video is just that much easier to follow. Cheers.
Thanks glad it helped. Did this vid a couple of years ago and so pleased it's still helping
LOL - as long as folks have tipovers in parking lots this vid will be helpful!
I know that first hand lol.
Thanks for this 👏 and I have same panniers for my GT arriving soon👍
I'm considering putting some venture shield protector on as already hitting them when I get on the bike.
Good video. Thanks for making this!
Steve,
Thank you for the video. Any idea how to pull the old lock core out when replacing into a new set? Is that possible?
From memory it was just brute force. I woukd also use a key inserted and turned slightly to get some traction
Is it always a combination of 2x1, 2x2 and 2x3?
Thanks bro, works as described. great vid
I have a problem with putting one on, like in your movie, and then you already show it on. How did you put it on?
Sorry can you explain a bit more
done, i use a small hammer and it came in right. Thanks a great video
Really pleased for you. Glad I could help.
@@marasl7440I'm afraid to use a hammer I'm also stuck at the last part..
Mine went in but it did need a good bit of force, not sure what else to suggest sorry pal
i always put stickers in the oven on a low heat to warm them up before sticking then on the bike helps then stick mush better
Do you think I can simply reapply if I remove?
@@stevesherlockrides don't know. but if it was me i would try it seeing as you say it's coming off anyway
@@howardkeynes9845 it would be easy, but how to remove the lock?
Thanks alot! Very helpful! Worked for my 1190 Pannier/Topcase!
Glad it helped
Hi I am upgrading my bike and wish to transfer the cases to my new bike, have you tried removing the barrels from the cases? As I plan to change the barrel config to a new key?
I havent removed them no but had a gent say he was doing it and that the barrels did come out but needed a lot of encouraging
Really helpful, many thanks
Thats what I'm here for lol
Steve, could you get the key out with the handles up? I'm still struggling to fathom out how to do it. My key won't come out of the lock in the carry position. 👍
You have to have the handles retracted in the closed position to remove the key
Looks like we will have to carry them into the motel room one at a time.
I just tried mine, and you can turn the key all the way to open, so the handle pops up, then turn it back to halfway, and the key will come out ...fully unlocked
Hi steve. do you think then it's possible to change the existing locks to fit a new / different key. i'm changing my sdgt but want to keep the existing panniers.
Yes you definitely can. Just remove the old barrel and follow the instructions on the vid with the new key
I’ll give it a try, cheers Steve.
No matter what I do the key cylinder will not go into the case all the way. Very frustrating
Can't sorry as mine went in
