Title: C-10 : A LITTLE HELP, PLEASE ! REMOVE IGNITION LOCK
Post by: concours_to_go on October 18, 2011, 03:39:31 PM

To the experienced,Does anyone know how to remove the ignition lock from the triple clamp?
Are the posts threaded?
Is it like a rivet?
I have it apart now.
TIA,
Jim

drill or dremel grind off the security screw heads, remove the mechanism, and unscrew the remaining "stud" with pliers.
re-install using an allen head (for a bit of security, as most thieves don't carry them...) or appropriate similar cap screw.
