    I went to a Yamaha dealership for a key for my 2012 Yamaha Zuma. They pretty much told me too bad...lol. I brought in my Vin...too. A locksmitch will charge you over $100.

    I jus bought a 2007 yamaha vstar 1100 from the police auction. It has all the keys except for the ignition key. How would I go about getting one?

    Thanks for the video. Having a key like you did makes it easy to find a key. Without the key, I've found the helmet locks are the easiest to remove. The code is stamped on the underside. If your lock has more than three characters it is always the last three that are the key code. This is true from the late 70s up until the early 90s. As you said, later models had a small tag that came with the original keys that contained the key code. If you don't record the number, there is no way to find the code on the bike. However, most dealers record the key code. If you know where the bike was purchased and you can prove ownership, the selling dealer may be able to help you. The VIN will not do you any good at the dealer or the distributor.

      ​@trisa9625 lmfao it's amazing how some folks don't drown in a bottle of water. Under the lock. He clearly says to cut it off and it's stamped "under it" being on the backside of the actual lock itself... hope we narrowed that down for ya🤣

    Hello, I have a 2001 honda Goldwing with NO key from an estate. I am struggling to find a locksmith and wondered if there are any other options?

    • @colinpacker938
      @colinpacker938 Před 2 lety

      Any lock on your Goldwing will have the three digit code. Either a helmet lock or the lock on your storage area would be easiest to access. On eBay there are people that will make a key from the code for around $10.

      I just ordered keys from Ebay and had a key place cut it.. just so I have a spare. Hope that helps. Extra keys are a Given when ever buying something second hand.. brand new they usally give you a couple. I don't ever wait when buying anything. I always get a key made most of the time 2. And make sure they work. Best of luck mate.

    Great video but you didn't indicate where the code is on the ignition barrel. I lost the key to my 1983 Honda Magna and removing the ignition barrel was relatively easy compared to removing the gas cap lock or the seat/helmet lock. SO I have the ignition barrel removed and I did find a code. It was tiny and barely legible with the naked eye. I had to take a picture of it and zoom in to really see it. In any case, the code on it does not seem right based on what I've read about what the format of the code should be. It's a 6 digit code with only one letter- an 'R' in the second digit place. The rest are all numbers. Would this be the key code that I can take to a locksmith to have a key made?

    • @colinpacker938
      @colinpacker938 Před 3 lety

      Byron, on Hondas of that era, the last three digits are your key code. They will either be all numeric, such as 123, or begin with the letter A,B,C, or D followed by two numbers.

    Hey just want to put it out there that I seriously don't think any place Would ever make a key for Any vehicle by just Givin them the V.I.N. Even if they could make them that way. Just because V.I.N. Numbers are located just about everywhere on vehicles. The dash board, door jams, etc. Way to easy to get one for thieves. If you could get one that way.. which I highly doubt, you would need proof of ownership etc.. plys.. how many places have keys laying around from any vehicle never mind something much older. The auto maker themselves Possibly could but I doubt that. My advice is get a key made before you even register your motorcycle, car, truck.. etc. That way you have a spare or 2. Also.. make sure they work. The person buying from an auction who bought a motorcycle, I'd change everything over.. ignition and everything. It may cost you a lil. If you decide to just sell it , or keep it, Nobody wants to deal with getting a key., plus you don't know if it runs gd, or runs at all. Good luck to everyone here. Good video btw. Thanks.

Anyway I have a 2005 C90 Boulevard I've looked everywhere for a code I can't find it. I don't have any tools really to try to take off the ignition switch I see that it's an Allen I'm not sure it's something small like a five or six or something like that but I don't have it and I can't afford to buy any tools.

    Whats really atrocious is that with cars if you can prove ownership [title and/or bill of sale] BMW will ship you a replacement key. Why motorcycles - which are comparatively cheaper cannot implement this beats me. Stories of Yamaha and Honda asking verifiable owners to pay for replacement of all key components is irrational bordering on bizarre. If BMW can secure the information for a 60K car Yamaha and Honda should be able to do it for 15K motorcycles!
