I just went outside to check out the track and I can not get my key to turn so I can start the bike.I've had this same problem with my truck door locks,for them I just spray wd-40,but I don't want to put anything like that on my keyswitch.I need to ride,my track is slightly tacky and its 68 degrees,HELP!!!!!!!!!

use white lithium grease. wd-40 wont hurt it either.

Happened to me once after a mud race dirt finds its way in there.I disconnected battery and opened up little flap where key goes in kept flushing it with water then when it worked I lubed with white lithium.

Won't the grease attract more dirt and dust?

Yes probably but I was afraid of corrosion more.
