Heather braved it through the snow to deliver the steering lock today, so have made up a mounting plate and modified a couple of stainless hex drive screws to suit.
Now all I have to do is weld it to the lower yoke so the lock bolt hits the steering lock.
Simple and only cost £8.49

Heather the Post Lady tells me she went to school with you.

The lock is as used on Hondas like the old C50-70-90. It's a new pattern part, bought from Bike Business in Portsmouth, via Evilbay on Thursday arrived next day and the £8.49 included postage. I think that's pretty good value and service. Yep we were at school together and so was Linda so we have known Heather for a long time, which is lucky, otherwise question might be asked about me taking the post lady into the garage  As you know she has an interest in trikes. |

Could we have a clearer pic of that Dave? Maybe from above? Can't see how it works.

Not sure the pic will help much.
The lock is mounted to a plate welded to the bottom yoke. when locked, the lock bolt rises and stops the yoke from moving by hitting the steering stop lug that is welded to the rear of the headstock/frame.

So does it lock or is it a pop up stop?

Sorry SB, I'm being a bit dense, not sure what you mean by a pop up stop. If you mean, can you push the lock bolt down then no, you need the key. Can confirm that it definitely locks the steering though To unlock, turn the key and the lock bolt (or pin) is pulled back down, flush with the mounting plate. |
