Default Quick detach security / lock

How are you guys securing your quick detach hardware. I know harley makes locking latches but they are over 100 bucks and only come in pairs. Hell I only need one. Any other ideas for locking down my tour pack?

I use a cable, run through the mount, my T bag and down to the frame on the inboard of the saddlebag.I use my disk brake lock to lock the cable.

if I am going to be somewhere any length of time, the T/P goes into the room.

cost=$0
stuff I already had

I bought the HD 2 pack and put one on my stealth luggage rack and one on my tourpak. Seems like they cost $50 for the 2. Now I can lock both on as needed.

X2,

On the cables, and Tourpak in the room if needed.

Also have the two detachable locks, one for the Tourpak, one for the riders back rest and really good insurance!

Anyone figured out how to lock the windshield? Seems like I read on here where someone came back out to their bike and their detachable windshield had been replaced by a damaged, scratched up one. This would really bother me.

There are locks from Brukus but i just have two zip ties on each side.
One zip tie on each side attaches to the removal hoop real close to rubber bushing and goes around the top bolt.
That zip tie on each side is black and rather hidden and requires a hot screwdriver tip to melt/remove it since cutters are difficult to reach into rubber bushing area.
The other zip tie on each side is very visible and somewhat of a decoy and runs similar but around outside.
The individual would have to study it, cut the first zip tie on each side but then they would have to study it again and that should delay them enough.
