Hi All,
So last year I bought the OEM top box and it's sitting in my basement. My lovely parents actually got me the Honda rear carrier for my 13 Cb. Now I'm looking at all the instructions and realize I don't have the energy to
Do the one key system. Does anyone in the mass/to area know how to do it or a specific locksmith that has done it for you? Also is it something a dealer could do?


Thanks for the help! Happy New Year!
I'm a little familiar with Honda's one-key system having done one for an NC700X. Any Honda dealer should be able to do it as the instructions are pretty clear.

And it should be a breeze for any locksmith - he'd probably do it cheaper too. If you have a friend who's handy, you might have him give it a try. He can't screw it up unless he loses parts.

I'm curious which OEM top box you got - the squarish one from Honda in the US meant for the NC700X, with the aluminum panels? Or the more rounded one from Samurai. I think either one would have to be bolted to the rack. I don't know of a box that quick-releases from a metal rack.
It's really not that hard. I did mine and I have never messed with keying a lock before.
