What's the key for?

Look down in the photos - there's a key...

Is it to lock the steering mechanism so that it'd be harder to steal and flip?

Just like the one on my 1973 Honda 350, except it was in the front of the fork,,,

I've seen some with the lock fully-imbedded in the fork crown with key access on the right hand side of the crown.

Pretty sweet. And as an aside, I'd rock that bike like there was no tomorrow...

Was a common bike lock when I was a kid.
