I can lock mine when the key has been removed. It is quite convenient.

Did same thing myself. Took Givi off Dakar to clean it, clipped back on and went for ride. Few kms down road, hit a bump and away goes the topbox. They certainly make 'em tough.

Wow, never had one of mine depart the bike, thankfully. If yours got lost, I do have one for sale in the classifieds. Just sayin’…
