Here are a few places to look at videos
First, view this:
If that doesn't work, go here: https://www.hdforums.com/forum/touring-models/460642-video-of-ignition-switch-removal.htmlNext, go here: https://www.hdforums.com/forum/touri...h-removal.html

I watched first video and got an idea of what to do
1. turn bike to far left to the lock position,
2. turn ignition switch **** to the far left, as if you were locking it
3. insert key into switch turn to left, while reaching under the ignition switch **** there is a small button on the left underneath side of **** push it up and **** should come off. Be careful there is a spring that will come out too
(take a magic marker and mark down the whole side this is just a precaution if any orientation is lost.
4. take a 7/8" open end wrench and loosen nut on top, take it off
5. next take the collar off it has one fat key and a slinder key to orientate
6. take spacer off, this should get you where you are down the the fairing dash part.
7.pull the dash back to get to the back two bolts loosen them with allen wrench, adjust handlebars and then reverse to install back.
Hope this helps.
