Key troubles

Basically, i went to open up my gas tank to vent the fumes before i rode to class today and ran into a minor problem. After i closed my gas cap, then turned it back to the left, i had difficulty removing the key without overwhelming pulling force. I noticed that some people had problems turning the key in the gas tank, but i didn't have that issue. I just had an issue taking it out.

WHAT TO DO?!


btw, it does happen to rain out here in beautiful central FL quite frequently and there are times when my bike is outside. Could rain be a factor?

Time for surgery.

Yes, the rain is the problem.

Try covering the cap when the bike is outdoors.
