<< < (3/5) > >>

Trigger:
UK and europe is in the steering stem , USA is on the ignition switch.
These look the same as the UK and was going to buy one but, don't have a bike to try it out

I went through the same with a CB400F2; mine was a Canadian model with nice ignition key steering lock, whereas the UK versions had you grovelling under the headlamp. My question is, why would Honda go to this considerable extra expense of frame variations and lock hardwares? (the 400F2 also had additional frame differences wrt pillion footrest mountings iaw international markets)

Sorry Bryan , I didn't explain it properly,  my UK model has the steering lock on the headstock like Seabeowner has stated on the K3 ,

Bryanj:
So if you want the uk one its the ebay number i posted

I guess a simple alternative could be a short cycle style cable, run round a fork leg and a down tube. Not too difficult to carry and might even fit in the tool tray.
