[QUOTE="RossKean, post: 1460971, member: 19880"] I don't mind the auto-retract, but as [USER=98210]@Dan Cooper[/USER] mentioned, it is easily defeated. As for the keys, the only time I would like to be able to remove the key while unlocked is for the gas cap. Side cases - too easy to break off a key if you left it. With my Givi topbox - I LIKE that the key is captive when unlocked since I leave the key in the lock EXCEPT when I want to lock it. Nobody can use the key to steal the bike since it differs from the bike keys. Some people have cut off a key and glued it into a knob to leave in the side cases. Still can be removed if you want it locked. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.fjrforum.com/threads/saddlebag-key-knob-mod.153540/[/URL] I think a key done this way would be too short to use in the ignition... [/QUOTE]
