Lock now broken! (screwdrivered?)

[The Pastor]

use a car jack to jack the bike up under the engine then stick some blocks of wood under it to support the bike while you take the front wheel off.

I wound up giving up trying to get the ignition unit off the steering plate.

Have taken the bike (minus fairings etc, so at least it's quicker for them to get at the lock) into Ross Galt. They've had a quick look - but unfortunately, it looks like they're going to need parts (hmm, bugger, probably going to be a bit more pricey too...). Apparently the their 'had a good go at it'.

I guess they're in a rush to get stuff done before tomorrow too, so I'll probably find out the deal on Monday.

Awesome - sorted .

Cost $137 all up, which I thought was pretty good. Had a chat to the guys at Ross Galt, good chaps. Turns out that my ignition lock only actually had 3 of the 7 wafers still in it - and one was shattered (by the most recent screwdrivering).

So they've fixed that, and the lock is now back to 7 wafers - which will be, well - quite a bit more secure, heh. And in other news, the steering lock now works! Huzzah!

NOW, time to treat my withdrawl . RIDE TIME!!
