I'm looking for a bit of help and advice around changing the lock on my top case.
If my dealer can find a new RTLC in the spec I want I will be changing it for my 2014 RTLC. I will be keeping my top case and, hopefully, re-keying it to the new bike.
Does anyone know how to get the existing lock barrel out of my top case before I hand over my existing bike & of course the keys.
The existing case does not have central locking.

Re: LC Top case lock
If you are giving a dealer a wad of money for New one, give him the case so he can do it . It takes them about 5 minutes. If he suggest you should pay for the work he's not worth doing a deal with.

I'm going to suggest to the dealer that he should do it, but good information to have SweRT.

I just fixed a lock tumbler on a 2013 model. I bought a "repair/re-keying" kit from Motorworks. Not very difficult to do and lots of good advice on the internet.

When I bought my 2017 and transferred the top case from my 2014, my dealer automatically did the lock for me.

Same here no problem with the dealer changing the lock. No cost for me...paynes1 wrote: When I bought my 2017 and transferred the top case from my 2014, my dealer automatically did the lock for me.
