hey guys...flame me if u already know this.. but i only found out this yesterday by accident! k...wen u turn the key to lock the steering, u can turn it a little extra. wat this does is puts the parkers on. imagine wat i thought wen i came out the bank seeing my lights on! anyway,...it only turns the parkers on n nuffin else works..ie start button(doh!), blinkers, horn etc.. anyone a clue y this is? dave
Yep mine does the same thing. The lock is a little stuffed so i have to be careful not to go that far around and flatten the battery <!-- s --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt="" title="Smile" /><!-- s -->
i think its for when you double park or need pplz to see your bike in circumstances where you have to leave the bike and u dont wanna leave the keys in. but have the lights on.
Strange....... Yeah I find I gotta push my key in...then let it return for it to go into the locking position.
Well what do you know, I do have a lock <!-- s --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s --> .
never knew about the parkng lights (or whatever...). Never tried to be honest, and now I can't go check.
I cant believe nobody has even realised lol. its a standard feature on most bikes I believe. As for the 360 degree rotations dave....dunno how many know about that! lol
Tried it on my new bike ('96 yzf750r) with no luck - I only have a steering lock. I do have a switch that has been removed on my left handlebar 'box' that puts on 4-way flashers though - discovered this one day when I opened it to have a look.
mine doesn't have it. <!-- s --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_sad.gif" alt="" title="Sad" /><!-- s --> just tried, from off position i turned the key left to lock, tried turning it a little further, no luck. 92' 3LN by the way, anyone with a 3LN have this feature?
