seized ignition.

Post by nickapaso »

Hello again. Well I took delivery of my new to me 907ie. Everything was fine except the fact that the key did not like going in or coming out so I used a small amount of extra fine dry graphite to try to remedy the problem. The bike runs great it has a chip, and a beautiful set of staintune stainless cans on it, but now the key doesn't turn. I don't want to try to hard and break it off, as this is the only key that it came with, and blanks are kind of hard to come by. This ever happen to anyone else?

Hi there,

you can disassemble the switch and check it. Here`s how to do it:
