there is a key code maybe under the seat or ignition.. if not check ur manual or dealer. the dealer should have it

 

I thought about that but I ended up learning how to disassemble a tumbler when you don't have the key. It was super simple, actually and now any key will work for my trunk door. I'm thinking of just getting a keyless gas cap too since mine doesn't sit just right and I'm sure it's allowing air into the tank. I've always been bothered by the though of a keyless gas cap but I dunno- I don't really think it going to make anyone mess with it anymore than before...I dunno.

So I guess for me it's not a bad idea - maybe not so much if you want to keep the fuel lid.

P.S. You could always remove the tumblers in your gas door and no one would ever know the difference... maybe?

 

Take it to a dealer, i did the same thing with mine locked. It took maybe 20 min for them to get it off and give me the number. They put it back on and i went to a key smith and he made it in less than 3 min. Over all it cost me like 25 bucks.

 

Well, Im in the process of trying to get my ignition off as well. Its a #6 hex, but it only tightens. I think im going to have to remove the tree to be able to drill it out. I hope you have better luck than I do

 

Anyone know the best way to get the Tighten-only bolts out???

 

take a real fat drill bit drill the head off just the head then when you take the ing off there will be 2 studs you can grab with vice grips and bam they come right out the i just used rear set screws to reinstall

 

I bought an extractor set for around $15. Came right out. Bought some new bolts from bike bandit($2 ea + shipping, got the 6 digits from the back side of the igntion, and ordered a new key from http://www.motorcyclekeys.com/keys.htmlfor $25 shipped. I got the key in 3 days. It worked out fine. If youre gonna do it, you only have until the 24th. He goes on vacation from 25 april to 5 june. I think you get added value of just doing it yourself.

 

Ya I got it done. It turned out that someone tampered with my ignition at one point and we couldn't get a new key to work. So for a temp fix I took the key cylinder off the ignition and just used a key to turn the plastic part in the bottom of the ignition to start the bike. But my new ignition has since arrived and has been installed. Very expensive lesson learned!

 

did you have to do the trunk too?

 

fortunately the key from the key code on the ignition works my gas cap and trunk.
