I cannot turn the key to unlock the steering wheel
SOURCE: My first time on a road king. do i need the key to
The key is used for 'Locking" and "Unlocking" the ignition lock. As long as the lock is unlocked, you don't need the key to ride the bike. But, neither does anyone else. When you walk away from your bike, anyone can jump on it, turn the switch on and ride off on it. That's why us old timers used to have the manually operated petcocks on our bikes. We'd turn the gas off. Most crooks wouldn't think to check to see if the gas was turn on. If they tried to steal your bike, they'd get just about out in the road and the bike would shut down due to no gas in the carb.
Good Luck

SOURCE: khow to remove steering lock
On any bike with the large ignition switch and steering lock on the steering head, do not remove this assembly. You can get it out but then you can't get it back in. It takes a special tool to realign the lock and switch. Best take this to the dealer.
Good Luck
