Well, nobody correctly guessed the Honda Dealer (HD) quote for the replacement of the LH pannier.
The answer is greater than $2,500. Did I hear anyone say Whiskey Tango Foxtrot and / or protest along lines of that is BS, crap, ridiculous, outrageous ........ ?
The nice lady from the HD explained that Honda Australia (HA) do not supply a complete pannier, but they can supply all of the parts, and there are 30 plus individual parts in the pannier if you include screws, clips, lock parts, etc... And then the quote includes $195 for 1.5 hours labour to assemble it.
I have an acquaintance who works for HA, he confirmed this idiotic arrangement.
I checked Partzilla, and summed the individual parts, that came to around half the HA quote. Methinks we are being ripped-off here in OZ.
