  • can't get the ignition into the "lock" position

    Does anyone know how to get an ignition key into the lock position when its not cooperating? The switch was replaced just prior to purchasing it, maybe thats the issue (faulty install). I can obviously turn the bars all the way left, but the key depresses and just doesn't catch like it should to lock the bars. Any info would be welcomed.

    While keeping pressure on the key slowly move the bars towards center. Mine won't lock when the bars are all the way over, but get it a couple millimeters off the stop and it'll lock right up.

      You just gotta find that sweet spot.
      90% of motorcycle forum members do not have a service manual for their bike.
