Pannier locks question...

brut33 · Nov 10, 2016

These panniers are off a R1200R (2012).
I'm looking to sell them but unfortunately they are locked. :blast

Not wanting to put them up for sale in this state of uselessness, can someone please advise me if its possible to have
them unlocked at a locksmiths etc. The dealership I contacted didn't seem to have a clue.

Sounds like a very lazy dealer!
I had a topbox locked and no key .A helpfull dealer gave me his box of surplus keys to try,20 mins later found one to fit&#55357;&#56835;
You can drill the lock barrel out as a last resort.

As per Wreck Diver, I just went in to my local dealer (NOG) and explained the situation to the Sales Manager who then agreed to let me go through all the keys in his new bike stock cabinet, until I found one that opened them up :clap

It made a pair of locked panniers I paid £10 for worth £250 for 10 minutes effort

Thanks chaps. On the back of what you pointed out, I've contacted another dealer who was very helpful. (Williams, Manchester).
He told me to bring them in and he will let me go through his keys.

Many thanks. :beerjug:
