Common questions

What does the integrated fork lock do?

The integrated fork lock engages when you turn off the ignition, preventing the front fork from turning. This adds a crucial layer of security, making it much harder for unauthorized individuals to move or steal your motorcycle.

Is this switch a direct replacement for my Harley Softail?

Yes, this Harddrive ignition switch with fork lock is designed as a direct replacement for OEM units on FX and FLST Softail models. It utilizes your bike's existing mounting points and electrical connections.

Will this require any wiring modifications for the fork lock to function?

No, the fork lock mechanism is integrated into the switch assembly itself and operates mechanically. It does not require any additional wiring or electrical modifications beyond connecting the ignition switch leads.
