I ordered Honda OEM accessories on 12/3/20. This consisted of backrest and pad, rear carrier/rack, saddle bags, saddle bag brackets, saddle bag stays. I received the backrest within a week, received the saddle bag stays Saturday. I can't start the install without the rest of the order, the stays mount to the brackets. Frustrating. Items allegedly in stock from same supplier and all ship separately.
  Well I'm thankful I was able to find everything I need, seems to be out of stock at most dealers and eBay. You need to piecemeal what you can find. It appears this bikes limited production has even more limited accessories. It's easier to find stuff for the extinct 1500. Probably unobtanium shortly.

My experience too.  I managed to gather the same accessories from various vendors on Amazon, eBay, and RevZilla.

That’s one of the problems with a low production bike whereas the 1500 was made for 7 years and sold 1000’s

Sadly yes. That's what forced my hand in purchasing every upgrade/option I want now, availability or lack of.

The stays arrived a couple days ago, the bags and brackets arrived late yesterday...still waiting on the rear carrier/rack. I'm home from work sick, good way to heal is apply Honda therapy. Wink

Done...nice quality, very solid, all holes lined up, all hardware included, well packed and shipped damage free. Fingers sore from Japanese finger torture.
