Need to remove Ign switch

Hi
My bike that I purchased didnt come with the keys to the Ign switch. No idea what the story is, but I would like to get the ign key made up. How do I remove the switch so I can take it into a locksmith to get keyed?

Thanx

Just take your vin # to any harley dealer,and they will have a key made.About 20.00 for it.

RE: Need to remove Ign switch

dude, definitly buy the factory manual. You'll be going nuts trying to work on that bike without it.

You can use a very small bladed screw driver to push the little tab in under the chrom swithchousing to remove the top part of the housing and bring that to a locksmith and they will make you a key.
