Alright i know all of yall are going to laugh at me but i lost my Moto key about a week ago i was ridding and then it got dark and started to get cold so i went to put my bike up then go play pool at the local bar... when i got there i realized i still had my key, so i put it back in my pocket... after playing pool there for awhile i went to a friends and played pool at his house then i went home around 1... well the next morning i couldnt find my key and now the dealer is saying i cant get one cut for me and i have to buy a new ignition switch.... bullshit... y wouldnt they be able to take the serial number and make a key from that it freaking retarded and pissing me off.... anyways a new ignition switch costs $86 and the labor is $65 im not going to pay that crap they have to be able to make a key... what should i do?

Sorry to hear that. I wish I can tell you how to get a new one, but I don't have a clue. Never happened to me before. Good luck on getting a new key. Next time though, you might want to do what I always do which is to hook the key chain to the D-ring of your helmet so when you grab your helmet, your key would always be there. Hope this tip helps.

I used to work at a bike shop. For you to get a key made you need to bring one in or buy a new ignition swtich. People just steal a bike and guy a new ignition anyways. BIG problem from what i've heard from my employers.

Call a locksmith!

Depending on what kind of bike it is dealers are limited to what keys they can make by code. For instance, if its a Suzuki with a one of many 4 digit key codes they have no way to create that key, they can only copy it. Moral of this story is to have more than one key.

BUt if you have that code... you can usually order a key from the manufacture

BUt if you have that code... you can usually order a key from the manufacture I had to do that on my old TL1000. Lucky for me I had the code written in my owners manual and the micro black steel tag with the code on it also. Suzuki called me a few days later to confirm the key and I had it in a week. that was in 2000. :luck:

well thanks for the advice... but the owners manual is under the back seat so i cant get to it but i guess ill just get a new switch but thanks anyway...
