Hi

I recently purchased a 1991 350 Bullet but the steering lock key is missing so I bought a replacement lock and keys.. How do I get the old one out and the new one in?

Thanks in advance

Tom

It depends if the lock is in the locked or unlocked position. If unlocked, once the brass pin is removed the lock body is pulled out. If locked, but broken due to being forced it may well need drilling out. As Im sure you know, they don't provide much in the way of security.

Hi midge

Cheers.

luckily it's unlocked.

I know they don't offer much security but it should slow any herberts down when I've just popped into a shop etc..

I was strongly advised not to use mine at all, when I first bought it, but to use a padlock and chain, so that if anyone yanked the bars they'd not break it and leave me lots of work...

Does anybody have a method of removing the rivet?
