I've been working on my forks and got tired of messing around trying to realign the ignition lock each time using a screwdriver so I made a tool for it.
It works quite nicely. The **** is 1.5" in diameter so it operates the ignition lock easily. I made it out of 6061 aluminum. Besides, it's kinda cute

Nice, I'd throw a knurl on the major dia. or start with hex though, just incase i happened to have oil or grease on my hand at the wrong time.

I thought about a knurl but it turns out that with a 1.5" **** it isn't needed regardless of how oily your hand is. My hands are pretty oily from the milling machine and it wasn't an issue. I sure appreciate the input!
I bought the Kent-Moore one from HD for $65. I often thought about having had it fabbed up, but I just went the route of buying it. JIMs sell them also now. That tool looks good Marc
