    GN250 ignition barrel

    I've got plenty of questions and no answers this week


    My dad decided he was jelly of my constantly broken VT250 so he got a bike as well. A little GN250, 2007. So the owner couldn't find the key while we were there but the bike was so tidy he bought it anyway. So now he gets sent a key and it's the wrong one after many attempts. So we either have to have a key made or remove the ignition barrel. I'm not sure if you can remove the barrel without a key though and I have no idea how anyway.

    I'm downloading the manual now to have a read through but any advice on best course of action here? I'm unsure if the key code is somewhere visible with the dash off or if it doesn't have one/have to remove ignition with the key.

    Yep in the end got a locksmith to do it. Didn't take long and they knocked a key out straight after

    It's piss easy to remove and you don't need to have the key to do it
    You can buy a new unit quite cheap, it has 4 wires to it one power, the other to kill switch-ignition/cdi via the starter solenoid relay, then lights and earth from memory

    If I was down at home I could send you one up with a key, but I'm away for a bit
