my mates bike was pushed over yesterday and now the steering lock is permanantly stuck on. the key wont turn into the steering lock position either, we have opened her up and seen that the forks arnt bent and the stem is intact. anyone no how to take the ignition barrel off - or what could be causeing the steering lock to be stuck permanantly ? any ideas at all on sorting this problem would be greatly appreciated, thanks
taking ignition barrel off? might be another easier way depending on the type of bike but on my aerox i had to drill it out lol
Take the barrel off and take the steering lock pin out Had to do that after some bastards tried stealing my SpeedFight but instead ending up permanently jamming the steering lock Either get a new barrel or make sure your using a disc lock and chain when leaving it
cheers mate - all fixed now - just no steering lock. this was a case of oh thats a nice bike i no ill push it over to fuck it up
i dont post alot because i dont know alot and dont want to give shit advice thats why i have 10 posts. and no im not a theif, its just a problem i was trying to solve cheers
shud have given the bars a knock in the opposite direction to take the pressure off the lock. I'd have come free then :thumbsup:
