If you are looking for more information on the factory accessories for the 8th gen, I stumbled on the online manuals/installation instructions today. You can find them here: http://cssportal.css...t.asp?group=oth (they have a few other bikes listed as well.)

Thanks for posting this, used it to fit my hugger and the rubber backrest for my topbox. Just to buy the risers, akro can and pazzo levers (when they come out).
I'm grateful for the info too. Without this I might have wasted money on a useless power socket. GeeZ...!

I got one, it comes with the touring package. It is only live if the engine is on!! . Dont understand why they did not put a socket or 2 on the outside of the bike somewhere.
Touring package. Never heard of that. Guess that's not an option in the 'States?
Beware, the side cases are only rated to carry 13.2 lbs each.
Two gallons of milk, better put one in each!!! $#!+....
Yes that pannier weight limit is a little disconcerting. I suppose the dynamics acting on the panniers in bumps must have led to a conservative limit.
Handle spacer will be easy to reproduce right Seb ...
Thanks for info very useful !
Moving the pannier locks. Hopefully none of you have to go through this but due to a taxicab passenger not looking before swinging her door WIDE open, I ended up having to replace my panniers. Naturally I bought just the panniers and planned on moving the key lock cylinders from the old set to the new set.
That as it turns out is do-able but not entirely without effort.
The objective is to reach what the instructions refer to as the stopper tumbler while the key is in the inner cylinder. Depressing that tumbler into the cylinder is what allows you to remove the inner cylinder so it can be moved to the new panniers.
Often, the outer cylinder will have some hole or slot cut into the side so once you can access the outer cylinder, you can push something in to release the inner cylinder.
To reach that inner cylinder you have to completely disassemble the locking mechanism from inside the bag. You'll need hex and Torx bits.
Then you'll discover that the outer cylinder has no hole or slot in the side. :mad:
There's a circlip on the back of the inner cylinder which fastens it to the actuator arm for the lock and bag release mechanism. Remove it the circlip and move the mechanism away, wipe away some of the grease in the slot underneath and you should be able to see that stopper tumbler.
I used a toothpick in the slot while rotating the key / inner cylinder to depress the tumbler. A paperclip in the little hole at the end of the outer cylinder helps push the inner cylinder out from behind.
