Default Broken Key

While cleaning my bike 2007 Kawasaki Vulcan 500 Ltd I unlocked my forks and pulled the key 3/4 of the way out of the lock. Later I turned the handle bar and broke the key off with 1/4" in the lock.

Is there a easily way to remove the lock and retrieve the 1/4" of broken key? Should I just take it to the dealer and let them work on it?

Thanks for any suggestions.
