Ignition shutter open with steering lock on?

Post by stevengeorgebooth »

Hi all,
I think a while ago I read about a mod that allowed you to lock the bike, steering lock on, without the shutter coming down.... Saved it but can't find the bookmark :(
Is this possible without destroying the shutter (drilling)?
Apologies if this has already been asked, I've searched and can't find it. I'm happy to be pointed in the right direction :)
The end of my key is getting pretty rounded now.....
Cheers.

Mine works this way. It does not close . Only sometimes. Maybe it's just dirty, but it worked that way from the beginning.

Personally when mine doesn't close it is due to water, a little WD40 sorts it.

There are two types of shutter.
The newer one closes automatically on key removal, the old one stays open on key removal.
