That should work. The brass tumblers are pretty soft and should shear off fairly easily.  Have a shop vac handy to clean out the shavings.

I hope this is on your bike!

I know gas is getting expensive but... :lol:

May we ask what happened to the keys? :roll:

take it to locksmith and have him open it, perhaps he can cut a spare key should you ever need one
Accelerate like your being chased, Corner like you mean it, Brake as if you life depends on it.
Ride Hard...or go home.

Its you Vs the pavement.....who wins today?

Hi,
i had the same problem. A 5-6mm drill worked well. Just one hole in the middle of the lock.
