Ian and Brian,
It was me that said a good locksmith can get a tumbler out. I emphasize the
word "good". Some locksmiths learned what they know by doing stuff and
other were trained in smithing schools. I do know it can be done as I know
a motorcycle mechanic here that calls in a locksmith everytime he needs a
tumbler pulled or a key made. The smith he know can make a key just by
taking some measurements in the tumbler. But that is standard fare for a
good locksmith. Hope you have luck Brian, Bob Hawkes

It is held in with a pin....at least mine was and can be pried (sp?) off. As for removing the lock....difficult without the key. Inside the lock |
| is a tab that needs to be released....which is accomplished with removing the cover and using the key. Can't do it without the fork key. Now some people said that a good locksmith could "pick" the lock and get the |
| out. Mine couldn't. Someone mentioned that you should try the ignition key...that might work. As with me....I gave up trying.
