how do i replace key lock cylinder 1979 750K

What is the procedure to replace the key lock cylinder on a 1979 CB750K, I bought a new one on Ebay when I lost the key, I see where it attaches and where it plugs in, not sure if I need to take off the handle bars and fuse box to get to it if anybody has done that in the past I would love to hear from you. Thank you from Nor Cal

Taking the headlight loose, and laying it to the side should give you plenty of room to get to it.
