steering lock (got mine to work)

[shredex]

does anyones work?
After studying my steering lock problem, and noticing that the bolt is to low by 1/16"
all I had to do was adjust one of the spacer on the triple trees which raised the top section with the ignition. Now it works!!
Yay!! not ther is a whole 10% less chance of someone stealing my bike from the original 95%...

Id like to make mine work but I have no clue how.
is it something easy to fix?

S,
mine works, most times the bolt bit gets bent or the hole in the frame gets burred.
judicios use of a file usually sorts it our

my key also wont come out when I turn it to steering lock.
i think the whole system might have been removed from my bike, not sure. Ill have to take a look again

oh, i see, its off center.
the bolt is about 1/8 inch to low, so it doesnt go into the frame hole

i think ill have to grind down the ignition mount so its set higher and will meet with the hole

+1! My buddy's '68 El Camino does that with the ingition. I thought it'd be nice cause then you'd never accidentally leave your key in the ingnition.
