I lost a fairing pocket cover on a main road near me and when I got back to it
it had been pounded by traffic and the lock and catches were fubar
I stuck it back on as best I could, forgot about the latch being damaged and
it flew off on the motorway a few days later
I didnt even think about recovering it and bought another from motorworks
At the mo, its in the unlock position and my key will go in but wont turn it
I am NOT buying a matched lock for something that could be bypassed
in seconds with a screwdriver
So
Anyone got any tips on fiddling with these pocket locks?
If possible I'd like to maybe remove the tunblers and have a
lock that looks normal but can be opened easily.
We call it a camel lash
