Before anything, yes I know I fd up. I have 97 900rr that I lost the key for, and I was wondering if this has ever happened to anyone else?

 

i havnt..
but i want you feel better,, i lost my plate driving home tonight,, tottally sux for both of us.. obviuosly i can fix my problem with a trip to the dmv...
i think if you were smart or if it was me and was smart i would find a locksmith who will either change the tumblers in all the locks on your bike or if hes really good, he'll make a new key to fit.. i've heard of it being done before.. goodluck my friend..

Are you able to disassemble the tail cowl? Remove the trunk key slot, take it to a locksmith to get it rekey. Safer if you buy the blank from eBay or Honda dealer.

 

I really appreciate the feedback. Well I told my wife about losing my key she told me she had seen something shiny outside in the dirt a couple days ago. I didn't reall think anything of it, but she sure went to go check. Low and behold she found my key lightly covered in mud...can't live with them, can't live withoutem

 

NICE!!!
please tell her my plate is about six inches tall and about eight accross..
now with only having one key, i would probably go get an extra set made... and cudos for the wife,i think she deserves something special this week...
well good for you man, one less headache you'll have to deal with this week..

 

Lucky...
Make a few spare keys. I have a few at home, as well as one in an inside pocket of my jacket. If I should loose it while I'm out, or if I accidentally lock my key in my trunk, I have an extra with me.

 

You need a key hanger. I use one of those clothes wall hanger and mount it on the wall of garage or next to entry door. I've start doing this for many years and very successful. Once you build a habit of placing all keys on one location, seldom would you lose them. You can male your own with a piece of wood & 5 hooks...or more depending how many sets of keys you have. I personally was moving around from apartment to apartments then found myself with to many wall coat hangers, instead of hanging coats, I hang my keys....Lol...what ever works bro..

 

And of course if you have spare keys everywhere, you will never need them!

 

Spare key is a must, ever firing your bike to warm up, then realized your riding gloves is in trunk???

 

+1000 i have three keys total. on that i use all the time, one as a spare in a drawer at my house. and one in my g/f's purse!
