If your dealer did not loctite the bag lock screws, then he probably did not give you the third lock either. That third lock is important even if you never add the Yamaha top box because it is keyed to match your key and can be used to replace one of the side bag locks if that becomes necessary.
I am one of those that apparently didn't get the locktite. I also didn't get the third lock or frame caps. I was told they didn't come with the 2007's. I called Yamaha and finally received three locks and the caps six months after I started the process. The three are keyed the same, but do not match the ignition etc. BTW the dealer keep promising to order the items, but the rep for Yamaha finally gave up on them and sent them to me. I would never buy another product from this dealer.

I put loctite on mine and one side still came loose and fell out??

Stopped to gas up before an all day ride, I had to Ty-Rap the latch.

Back to the house and found a phillips head set.

This time with longer screws with lock washers and Loctite.
