Top Box removal

[Younger06]

Hi,
Can someone tell me or show me how to get the genuine Honda Top Box removed from it's mounting plate? I need to fit a Givi plate........but I can't budge the silver Honda box from the back of the bike!!!

I've used the key and released the plastic latch.........is there something I'm missing ??

My top box was very tight and didn't want to come off either. I found that the box fits tight in its cradle and sometimes needs a little bump forward using your palm to the back of the box. Use a controlled force but keep hold of the box as it comes off. It can come out quickly and roll off the seat.
Hope this helps..

Perfect.......thanks!
