Author Message   Bamaboy Posted on Monday, January 28, 2008 - 03:53 am:        Anybody know what the fastener holding the headlight/key switch on the XB lightning is called??? It looks like a torx with a center stud?   Henry_the_8th Posted on Monday, January 28, 2008 - 04:29 am:        Sounds like a tamper-proof torx   Gentleman_jon Posted on Monday, January 28, 2008 - 06:40 am:        I believe that you need a special security torx tool to remove that fastener. It is available from one of our best sponsors, American Sport Bike. The part in question is the 16049 Ignition lock removal Torx wrench. $6.85 plus shipping. Looks like this:   Xb9 Posted on Monday, January 28, 2008 - 07:36 am:        put a vice grip on it to get it loose, then you can remove it with a small screwdriver   Bamaboy Posted on Monday, January 28, 2008 - 12:15 pm:        Thanks guys!
