Left side saddle bag assembly

[daler]

Back in October of 2021 I ordered the left side saddle bag assembly because I damaged mine. I ordered it from BikeBandit.com and was told it was on backorder. Now I come to find out they filed for bankruptcy and are no loner in business.
Can anyone recommend another supplier.
Thank you and ride safe.

Partzilla is still legit as far as I know. But when I destroyed my left side pannier including the inner black plastic half two years ago, I went down to the local Honda dealer with a shopping list of part numbers. They could see Honda's availability of all spares and I let them order in the stuff for me.

Wow! Didnt see that coming. As far as I know, Revzilla is healthy but ?
I mostly go through the dealers for OEM parts but there were pre pandemic times I did use others for OEM farkles.

Wow, I had no idea this was going on. (haven't ordered tires from them is some years) Jalopnik has an article up about this... They filed for Bankruptcy back in Feb but left the website up and operational despite being effectively insolvent. They collected $600,000K+ from unaware customers who were just adding stuff to shopping carts and checking out as normal.

I guess they lived up to their name in the end.

I had noticed issues on their website but did not know this was going on. I got good service from them in the past.
Another one bites the dust. Too bad.

Yes, they were my go-to favorite, quick shipping and plenty of parts in stock, but they are gone now. I just ordered fork seals from RevZilla and they came in within a few days.

I've ordered parts, OEM and aftermarket, from Servicehonda.com
Always got good service. You can bring up the parts diagram also which really helps.

I ordered the right saddle body from Partzilla in April this year, for 280. Came in a big box in about 10 days, no issues.

Does the saddlebag cover come painted? If so, how can you order a red one vs. a silver one?

Don't know the part numbers offhand but the three different colors have their individual part numbers.

I recently ordered some parts from Partzilla and had no problem with them. I've used them several times to order OEM parts our dealer said were on backorder. So far have never had a problem.

For those who like to see photos.

Having done this exact job, here's a few pointers. Take some photos and make sure the seat latch and the lid latch mechanism gets installed back in the right orientation. There are a few washers and collar inserts that live between the plastic and subframe. A few of them I taped in placed when putting everything back together.

It's a good time to paint the rear fender too, easy to remove with the saddle bag body out.
