OK here is a goofy one for you... I've had the F6 apart for the last week or so to install some goodies and do some wiring clean up work from the LED lamps that I installed awhile back. Anyway... while I had the meter panel cover off and the instrument cluster out of the way I had the key in the ignition switch. The key worked fine as far as being able to turn the ignition switch to the different positions. (On, Off, Fork Lock, etc...) But when I tried to remove the key it would only come out about half way. I could push it back in and it would rotate correctly, but it just wouldn't come out. I tried to work it back and forth and up and down, but it would still get stuck when I tried to remove it. The bike has less then 3000 miles on it and it's not like it has been exposed to excessive dirt or weather. So my thought is that there must be something in the tumblers inside the switch that is out of whack that is jamming the key. There are (2) T20 security head Torx screws on either side of the top part of the housing that I removed hoping that the lock cylinder would come out with the key in it allowing me to see what the issue was. Well when I removed the screws I was unaware that there was a spring under this housing that sent those two screws flying as soon as I made the last turn of the screwdriver. Of course I saw the head of the 2nd screw just before it disappeared into the abyss of plastic know as the shelter and center storage compartment. After a moment of silence in disbelief that this just happened followed by an outburst of profanity that would make the 7th fleet proud (then of course the voice from inside the house asking... "is everything alright out there?") I decided that I had had enough fun for one day. So before I remove every plastic part that a motorcycle to possibly have on it in hopes of finding these two lost screws... I'm going to go fishing with a magnet to see if I have any luck. Worse comes to worst I will just replace the screws and cross my fingers that the originals fall out of the body work before do any damage to anything. Easy right? Not so fast there. In looking at the parts breakdown Honda doesn't list (or show) these screws at all. I'm assuming that they want you to buy and replace the entire ignition switch assembly? Any ideas on how to find out the specs on these screws?
