Fork locks on old softail
I forgot all about riding around with a monster padlock hanging from my belt. Now that I just picked up a '93 Heritage Classic, I remember all too well.
Does anyone know of any conversion or better idea than locking the forks with a padlock?

The padlock is the quickest and cheapest way to go. I always drilled a hole on the right hand controls bracket and hung the lock there when it was not in use. You need to give it a squirt of wd40 everytime you put the bike away for the night or you won't be able to unlock it from the road grime, but we don't have a ton of places to hide it otherwise unless you just toss it in the bags.

there are a number of things made to hang your lock on or in;

Do some google searching, harley made a chrome do-dad to hang them on and I bought this leather thing last year that works great, I think it was 4 bucks shipped via ebay.
I remember the lock on the belt thing too, It had a couple of uses in that configuration..LOL
