Remove the ignition switch assembly

from the motorcycle (refer to Service

Manual page 1H-12).

Remove the two black plastic covers to

access the cylinder cap mounting bolts

(Figure 5).

Note: The black plastic covers will not be

reused.

Secure the mount area (bottom) of the

ignition switch in a vise (Figure 6).

NOTE:

Turn the ignition switch to the OFF posi-

tion and remove the key from the ignition

switch before disassembling the switch.

Remove the two "break-off"

screws from the ignition switch using the

special screwdriver. Set the stepped end

of the sleeve on the special screwdriver

facing toward the "break-off" screws

(Figure 7). Strike the special screwdriver

5 to 7 times with a hammer to produce a

deep enough groove on the screw head

for the screwdriver to work properly

(Figure 6). Pay attention not to hit other

parts with the hammer. Turn to remove

the "break-off" screws in a counter-

clockwise direction. If the groove be-

comes damaged, make another groove

at a 90

angle to the original groove.

Remove the ignition switch from the vise

and hold it upright over the workbench

and carefully remove the cylinder cap

(Figure 8).

NOTE:

Pay close attention to the order and

orientation of the ignition switch parts

during disassembly.

When striking an object with a hammer

parts can fly up, hitting you in the eyes

and cause blindness or injury.

Always wear eye protection when us-

ing a hammer.
