Topic: I can’t recall what the trick is to get steering lock out…

[alacrity]

There’s a thing you do with a thing to the thing and voila, the old steering lock tumbler comes out…

This one on a 75 cb750k

Thanks

Remove plastic cover. Insert key in lock and turn..Pull lock and key out.

Looks like the plastic cover is mostly gone already in the pic.

Well there’s the rub.  The pile o parts they is (finally) almost a motorcycle came with locks but no key.  I now have a matching key set for the new ignition switch and seat lock.  My favorite locksmith needs me to remove this before he will re-key it to match.

Huh? That simple low security lock should take less than a minute for a novice lockpicker to open with improvised tools. An expert with proper tools might do it faster than you could with the key.
I am no expert but I picked one easily for the same reason.

Looks like T1810 maybe? From a quick look on eBay that's within the range they came with. There are also a few good plastic covers there complete with the little swiveling lock cover and screw for ~$15USD.
