It's like grabbing a really fat guy after he drank all your beer, dragging him to your car, and driving him home. Not worth it.

Geez. Misogyny? Had to look it up:

Misogyny /mɪˈsɒdʒɪni/ is the hatred or dislike of women or girls.

Oh no, I really like women. I even like to drag them upstairs sometimes. It's tough when they weigh 300 lbs though.

Funny thing is this happened last Wednesday. After I got the bike in my garage I tried locking it and noticed the issue. I rotated my bars like you said (this is while the triple clamps were slightly tweaked from the crash) and i found where it will lock. Then Sunday I loosened triple clamps and straightens out front end. Now that its perfect the lock doesn't work even when I try rotating bars and findin the right spot. I can see the mechanism moving when I turn the key but it won't fully engage.

Guess when I have a free weekend ill have to tear we apart.

Also I always use my locks ignition and helmet never had a problem until now
