    Lost key advice?

    Don't know why but it's disappeared, can't find it - looked everywhere. Possibly ended up in the rubbish by mistake.

    Spent all evening looking for it and , here I am ...

    Good thing is I still have a spare for my Gen 2 Hayabusa but, I do want another ' spare' key .

    Any advice on a replacement would be appreciated

    Cheers

    Sometimes the key number is on the ignition barrel. Or the fuel cap. Or the helmet lock. Or the seat release.

    Or take any one of those to a locksmith. Half hour tops .... new key. (get two) And get an extra cut for the Bus ...

    if its not chipped any decent locksmith will be able to cut a copy (they`ll usually have blanks that will work)

    Yep had that - looked in the tank bag bout 3 times and finally saw the key tag poking out a little when I looked at it again. Good waste of 2 hours - (it was the wives)

    Life would be so much easier if you addressed questions with a simple answer.

    We cleaned out a mate's motel room his luggage & were about to leave as he was getting ready to screwdriver the lock. then I had an epiphany. Used that knowledge again latter to same effect.
