    You need a new ignition lock/switch

    Next you'll be losing the key whilst riding DAMHIK

      Hi Ian,
      OTOH my XS11 needs 2 keys. Coincidentally both locks (Special bike with Standard tank) have the same 4-digit key code number but the key cross-sections are mirror-images of each other.
      Your circumstance does avoid some of the key duplication.
      I reckon it takes 5 keys per bike to be safe.
      On your keyring.
      In your billfold.
      Taped inside the right-hand side cover.
      In your sock drawer.
      At your mom's house.
      What with my XS11 needing 2 keys my total key count for 2 bikes would be 15.
      Lucky you only needs 6.

          Man, I only have one per bike. Gotta go get some made. Well I guess 2 per bike cause of the tank key.
