Nearly there

[Batfastard]

Hi. Wee 2005 RT1200 i have been working on over Christmas is nearly the way i want it. Only issue i have is the side panniers seem very loose when fitted. Looking at this parts diagram i see the piece, number 23 is missing from my cases. Can anyone show me exactly where this bit goes. Thanks in advance

Isn't 23 the extending foot that moves to push onto the bottom bike pannier support when you close the handles down? I guess the panier would be loose without that bit sorry I don't have a picture but can sort one tomorrow with luck as the 05-09 same as 10-13 I think...

This video shows a side box being removed from the bike. When removed, the location of part #23 can be seen with the locking mechanism retracted.

So it looks like it slides down past the locking mechanism. Will give that a try. Thanks

I think the idea is that #23 can be purchased in different sizes to adjust the fit of the side box.

Cheers David. Like a sort of shim?

Like a sort of shim.

Yes, I would agree with you. The original ones could be the thinnest.
