Default Front Fork Lock Problem

could not find anything in any other threads, so here is the problem:

bike is fork locked, went to unlock and start it, the lever pops up, but wont move in the off or ignition position, it moves maybe a half inch, the pin will not come up to release the fork. called the dealer, he says tap the pin with a screwdriver, well i cannot hardly get a finger on the pin,much less a angle to get a screwdriver in there, any ideas? this (ignition switch) is a recall item also, if i can ever get the bike there...lol

do you have a manual, it will tell you how to remove the ignition lock and you might be able to lub it and get it working smoothly then.

sounds like the top is separated from the actual lock. If it is a recall ask your dealer to come pick it up
