No steering lock?

My new-to-me 1999 R11RT doesn't appear to have a steering / handlebar lock position with ignition switch. I don't have an English language owners manual. This bike was imported from Sweden. Do Euro bikes not have steering locks? Or is there a separate lock? I really didn't have time to search....was running to work.

They all have a steering lock.
Look closely at your ignition switch.
Handlebars to the left, turn key CCW.
First notch is locked
2nd is Locked with parking lamp F&R**
**Careful that you don't unintentionally leave in that position - you'll come back to a flat battery.
(used if you have leave the bike close to traffic in a breakdown situation)

Took quite a bit of fumbling around but that worked. PO probably didn’t use it much. Seems to be fine now. TY
