Ignition lock-off-run
I installed a vortex aluminum triple tree top and my ignition won't turn to lock my handle bars...It has been since sept. and i am bored at work so I figured I would see if anyone else has or knows why this happened and how fix it?
Thanks!
Thanks!
My guess would be that by replacing the triple-tree with an aftermarket one, it has caused the deadbolt inside the ignition switch to be in misalignment with its corresponding hole in the frame (works similar to an ordinary household door lock). Thus in order to remedy this, you'd have to figure out how/why it's misaligned, and move the switch accordingly. I presume either up or down if the switch is still centered. Either that, or skip the whole procedure altogether, and get a disk brake lock and/or chain.

i'm going to try and disasemble it and then lock it with the key and reinstall at full lock left and see where that gets me. I am going to get new clip ons so its a good op to do it.
Mine has not been able to lock since the day I got it. Not sure why exactly but now that Im thinking about it I wrote it down on my things to do list. Thanks. Hopefully I can fix without having to replace.
