My NT1100 was blown over by wind a month ago and my top box exploded due to the impact, ordered one online to avoid dealers and extra costs to replace it and forgot I would have to assemble the lock myself. Thank you for this easy to understand and straight forward tutorial! My new lock and box are all in working order!
Glad to help
Thank you. You made a daunting task into something very simple. You’re a life saver
Glad to help
This was a lifesaver. I had no instructions with mine. Works like a charm. Thanks from The Great White North!
Glad to help
TH-cam is good but only when top fella's like you take the time to make such clear and helpful videos. Many thanks from across the pond ! safe riding
Thank you for this wonderful video. Without it, I wouldn’t have even attempted to build the lock cylinders. You’re awesome.
Glad to help
I can’t thank you enough. Thanks to you…I double checked my cylinder and twice it was wrong. Following your instructions, I finally got through assembling mine correctly and triple checking it. Installed it and it worked perfectly. Your video was a tremendous amount of knowledge and skill. Thank you for sharing it. My success was largely due to your instructions.
Glad to help
Thank you very much, so much easier than the supplied instructions and saved a lot of time.
Couldn't have done it without you! Thank you.
Accidentally I disassembled the cylinder rendering the lock unusable. Thanks to your video I could assemble it back 👍🏻👍🏻
Glad to help
Brilliant video, The only one I've found which explains the process from start to finish in complete detail. Time for me to assemble one after needing to replace my Pannier on my Honda NT 1100, The NT 1100 Lock is exactly the same part number as the one you have used for your Africa Twin. Many Thanks.
Just used this again for the NT1100 Top case/box. Easier knowing I've done it before but still a satisfying job, thanks again, best guide and explanation for Honda lock, nothing left out. I did however have a few lost spring issues (one of the 2 larger ones with no spares) but had some from old locks I'd taken out of some older panniers but then found the springs had rolled and stuck to my laptop (magnetically) after crawling around on my hands and knees for 10 minutes!!!!😁
Really informative; like most things, its a daunting task until you have done it once yourself, or seen a video like this one. Excellent.
Fantastic Video, Very Helpful, and I managed to install my 2 barrels with no problems. explains everything very clearly
I just followed the instructions and give myself time. Plenty of it. :)
It's work well.
In the final act when I inserted the thing in the box hole something not quite with I expected because the locking plete above was not fully pressset so the key not going to 90 degree....and the key in open position not free also....
I experienced some 20 second of sorrow...
But eventually everything goes to normal when I discovered the problem.
Thank you for your effort.
Great instructions! I wish you made this a few weeks ago. I did my 2020 africa twin and used the provided instructions. It worked, but your method looked a lot easier.
Thanks. It would have been up sooner but the US is having issues getting the accessories.
GREAT VIDEO......I just keyed my 2020 Africa Twin last night. Instructions Honda gave you might as well been in Japanese. Thank again....very easy
Thank you! I thought I would have to go to the dealer and be charged for "keying" these tumblers! So cool to learn this stuff! Really appreciate your time.
Glad to help
Very useful! I just got my Honda pannier and key cylinders, will watch your TH-cam again to make sure I do it right! Thank you 👍
Before you turn the cylinder around, secure the pins with a transparent tape. So you prevent the pins and springs from falling out when you turn them to them down. Also you secure the pins from misaligning hence making it difficult to insert the key. Remove the tape before inserting the cylinder into the pannier. Excellent video because the original description does not tell you that the pins must not extrude from the underside of the cylinder.
Thank you for the detailed instructions. Just fitted my Transalp 750 50lt Top Case with the same motorcycle key. The side panniers follows now that i know how to make them.
Glad to help
Brilliant. Thanks so much. Used this on my top box for my new NT1100. The included instructions were total gibberish.
Thanks! This saved me hours of frustration and probably a new lock set. I had done some locksmith work as a kid but the Video and the suggested grease usage were excellent.
Ya thanks!!! I bought a set of Honda panniers used and wanted to have one key for it all. So this was a great lesson on how to do it. With grease still in the cylinder, it held in all the springs etc. so I only did one at a time and thankfully the graduations weren’t drastic from x# to x# and it was pretty seemless. Really thorough! Nice vid!
AT 19
Used this video twice now to do this job
Much appreciated it really makes it easier! The Honda instructions are terrible this makes a lot more sense!
Glad to help.
I can the key to turn to the right but key will not come turn to right ,what did I do wrong
@@charlesgaither7485 it should only come out when it’s in the unlocked position
I don't understand because the key needs to come out when it is locked
Thank you for this perfect and clear video. Greetings from Russia!
This worked perfect for my top box! I could not have done it without this video! Thank You!!
Glad to help
I really appreciate you doing this video.... great explanation and I totally messed up first go around, then found my mistake by starting over. Again, fantastic... thank you
Thank you so much for this great video. When I saw the kit for the top box I thought I would not be able to do this. Your patient explanation of what to do put me at ease, and after carefully doing exactly what you said, I was able to complete this install. Again, thank you sir 🙏
Brilliant video. Clear explanation. Can’t say enough this helped. Thank you!
Thank you so much for your video, give me amazing help to assembly the lock cylinder for my 2024 Honda 750 Transalp.
Thank you so much. This video was exactly what I needed to key the hard bags on my Africa Twin. Great job!!
Thank you for making this tutorial video. It was very helpful keying the the VFR800F panniers I purchased.
Thanks for your video, I just used it to do the same locks for 2 new panniers I just got for my NC750X. Enjoyed doing them too, very satisfying, the locks in there only had half the pins in and not even aligned correctly. The removal video also helped too so thanks again.
Which panniers do you have? I also have a nc750x and trying to do the conversion key from givi alaska cases
Springs: according to manual there are 13 silver (small) and 2 black (big) springs. Black spring goes only for the Stopper Tumbler (in video called Locking Pin or Locking Pawl) so actually there is one spare black spring.
Thank you so much for this very precise and informative video; the instructions from Honda are not clear but you made it clear.
Glad to help
That made an impossible task doable thank you. I had a problem that some of the pins kinked as I put them in and went into the wrong holes at the bottom, but fiddling around and leaning the barrel on its side helped keep them straight. Also noticed, too late to be useful, that for me the bottom pins were a mirror image of the top ones, possibly because my key can be inserted either way up. Too confusing to think about !
20 minutes and I was sorted. Thanks so much for this.
Awesome video! Very good instructions! Thank you for making this video!
Thank you so much!!! Awesome video! I did this last night
Thank You, you’re totally amazing to have worked this out and also sharing. 😇
You just saved me little over 300 Dollars. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!
Absolutely first class “how to video”i must admit I completely forgot I needed to make up the key lock myself when i ordered the panniers,my skills and patience are very limited when it comes to doing work on my bikes,watched the video all the through once,then started it again and pausing it as i built the barrel….i put the panniers on my Honda Forza 750,i have been left with two clear see through sheets,can not make out what they are for,its listed as URL paper…..once again thanks for the video……Steve
Glad to help
Thank you. very easy to follow. fixed my pannier up in no time.
Just completed all three of my locks! I can say, your video was highly informative, I saved hundreds of dollars from doing it myself vs the dealership work!!! Thanks a million.
Thank you. Super detailed and very clear
Great video! Very informative and very well done. Thank you.
Thank you very much! I've managed to put new locks on new paniers like a professional! 👍🏻
perfect, very helpfull, greetings from Slovakia !
Thanks, glad I could help.
Thank you! At first glance this seemed really daunting. Followed your video and was successful.
Glad to help
Great demonstration followed it easily thanks good description erc❤
Thank you for this video. Helped me through it!
Awesome mate! Did mine today
Glad I could help
Is the best tutorial ever! Saved lot of time. Thank you sooo much!
Glad to help
Thank you!!! Worked perfectly!!!!
Thanks for this. Used it for the lock cycliner in an OEM 45L top box for my 2019 Honda X-ADV. This video made it a simple task to match the new lock cylinder to my bike key. The printed instructions that came with the topbox were somewhat baffling.
Glad to help.
Tks for your help but can I MATCH this lock on the video with smartbox. the key of the smartbox is with teeth on the top and under and a grove in the middle? Tks
when you buy anything that requires you to have a inner key cylinder honda should include the link to this video for instructions on how to install it
Excellent video. Very well explained 👏 👌 👍
Thanks
Perfect video, thank you 👍🏻
Great video, thank you very much.
Glad to help
Awesome video!!! Very descriptive!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks a lot ! You helped me out.

Very helpful! Thank you.
Really helpful，thanks a lot !
Great video. Thanks!
Glad to help
Thank you for the excellent tutorial. Hopefully there are more to come for me and my 2018 Africa Twin with Honda OEM panniers. I read that 2018 through 2020 are all the same.
I have one question. You demonstrate filling all of the slots with tumblers which is very clear to me. However, the panniers came with an instruction sheet (Publication MII 15641) and on page 6 item 13 it indicates 2 of the 4 slots used and the other 2 not used with no explanation. Does it matter? Can you help clear this up so I can get started. If using all 4 will still still work, good I'll go for it.
Thanks,

That's Honda's slight screw up. I've reviewed the publication and I see what you're saying. You need to the other 2 also. They just didn't say so.
@@SkyhookStudios Thank you for the reply. However, I chose to go with the instructions from Honda by leaving out the tumblers in question and the install went perfectly. I suspect though, that it may have worked either way, but thanks anyway.
My 2020 and newer Africa Twin OEM Polypropylene Top Case instructions also omitted the last two tumblers but I elected to install them without issue. Also, if you look closely at the profile of the key opposed to where each tumbler inserts into the cylinder you can closely predict which tumbler number to use. The deeper the cut in the key opposite the the tumbler location, the higher number tumbler you need.
Great video! It worked like a charm. However, once I placed the cylinder (with the key as illustrated) into the pannier, having heard it click all the way down, and after the turn to lock worked, as I tried to remove the key (turned from the lock position to open), the cylinder came out with it. Thoughts?
Either you didn't put the locking pawl in or the cylinder is clocked wrong.
Very halpful, thanks a lot!!
This tutorial was fantastic and made a difficult task relatively easy. I encountered a problem after the lock assembly, I can insert and remove the key when the lock is in the “locked position”, but can’t remove the key when it is in the “unlocked” position. Does anyone have any insight as to what the problem might be?
This is how the system is designed. My thought is that you can not leave the cases unlocked by accident.
@@SkyhookStudios thanks for the prompt reply! As soon as I hit the “send” button on my initial message, I thought “wait, I bet they designed it that way so you can’t leave it unlocked”. Nighttime cold medicine strikes my dumb self again, hahaha!
Very good video. What can happen when i have some pins missing? Greetings
If pins are left out, it would make it easier to pick or force open.
Thank you for the quick answer
Thank you... thank you... thank you!
Thank you so much 😊
Glad to help
BRILLIANT
is this applicable to the 2018 ATAS as i have that and just got an aluminium backbox, the honda branded touratech box
Yes, same part number as the 2020 ATAS.
@@SkyhookStudios great Thanks
Will this work for the first gen Africa twin?
you are a wizard
Hi, probably a silly question - two cylinders for two panniers, same key though - so the little picture map that you drew, it should be exactly the same for both…. right?
Thanks!
Yes, once you have the "pin map" created, it's the same for all panier cylinders.
@@SkyhookStudios thanks very much. Excellent video. 👍
Can the key be removed if in the unlocked position? Or does it need to be locked for the key to come out
Must be in the locked position for the key to come out.
@@SkyhookStudios thank you! This was a huge help to me as I’ve never built a lock cylinder before. Glad I did it correctly thanks to your video!
can you do a video on how to remove the cylinder.. as the box I have is not compatible with my 2018 ATAS... Arggghhh lol
The video you have requested is up. Hopefully it's still helpful if you haven't already figured it out.
It looks very daunting at first, but this video made light work of it, just stop the video until your happy with each pin, if I can do it anyone can
Thank You
very helpful but no idea how to mount the receiving part of the cylinder in the latch mechanism.... which is also not attached to the new top box.....
The end of the video describes how to install the keyed cylinder into the latch mechanism.
@@SkyhookStudios thank you but my latch mechanism was not installed and the female part that receives the lock Barrel was not installed in the latch mechanism either. It was in about six or seven different parts. I figured it out eventually hahaha took about 3 hours
Awesome, all my panniers came with lock cylinders although they said there were sold separately. Ended up buying 3 extras.
How do you know which of litte plates go where?
That's the point of the video. It's all explained in there.
@@SkyhookStudios hi, great video and it certainly does the trick. However, if you go to a honda dealer, can't they tell you which of the a/b and X 1/6 pinns have to go in each slot based on the key code?
I don't believe so. I've keyed tumblers like this for Chevy, Ford, Mazda, Toyota, and a few others and it's always that way. I think since you could have changed to a different key at some point during ownership, they don't have the specific info stored.
Very helpful! Thank you!
