Dunno if this is a farkle, but it's useful and free

In order to make it easier to get in and out of my left fairing pocket, I wanted to defeat the lock. Making that cut down key looks cool, but I haven't found time to mess with it. Instead, I took a small zip tie and tied it around the lock, holding the pin back most of the way. Now, it actually clicks into place closed and takes about as much pull as the right side to open her up. Best of all, when I want to lock up, all I need to do is rotate the zip tie off the pin and it works normally. To put it back to "unlocked" mode, you just turn the key and slide the zip tie back down into place.

Cost = free :-)

the way I figure it, I get a 1000 zip ties for 8 dollars -- so the cost is .008 cents --- not free --- but pretty close to it :D

I get mine from work so it is free for me. LOL

I found a round soft plaSTic end cap and put that over the lock, holding the thingy in.

Brilliant Wal! I'll do it the first chance I get.
