Hi guys,
I own a 99 boxeye for a couple of months now and right from the start the "lock"-position of the ignition/key has never been easy-in/out. But it is getting worse - in the meantime I have a very hard time getting it into or out of the locking position without serious rattling and fiddling on keys and handlebars.
Looks like I'll have to do something about it rather sooner than later.
I'm wondering what I'll have to switch out in order to get rid of the problem and since I assume I'm not the first one to face that, I wanted to ask for ideas/experiences/advice with that sort of problems.
Is it more likely to be a problem with the actual ignition lock or rather the locking mechanism (the bolt that locks the fork in place) itself ... or will i end up swap out both anyway (are they even separate units)?
I saw sets of locks (probably aftermarket ones) for around 60-100€ on eday ... are they any good? (I guess new ones, even aftermarket, are still better than used units, since these definitely wear out over time).
thanks in advance
johnny
