Title: Misplaced keys Post by spiknoff on 07/01/07 at 17:38:13 I just recently purchased a 98 Savage and I stupidly misplaced the keys. Any suggestions on how to get a set made without having to replace all the parts that use keys? Thanks in advance |
Title: Re: Misplaced keys Post by verslagen1 on 07/01/07 at 18:00:19 Check the side of your ig switch for a black panel. There might be an "E" code there. If there is, you can order keys online. http://www.motorcyclekeys.com/ Or take the code to the dealer. ;D |
Title: Re: Misplaced keys Post by justin_o_guy on 07/01/07 at 21:02:34 Bummer. Lousy time of year to be hunting keys. If you dont have a special place for keys, well,, need I say more? Actually, I leave the key in mine at home, in the garage. Most of the time anyway. If there are people around I dont trust to stay off of it I dont. Certain age boys just make me cautious. As a former boy, it just seems prudent to distrust them. |
Title: Re: Misplaced keys Post by Max_Morley on 07/01/07 at 21:11:55 I've got 2 extra full sets of keys for mine, when we 'scoot' togeher on road trips we keep the other riders extra keys with us in case one gets lost, or if an accident happened they could either get the items from the bags and secure the bike or help move the bike if the jeys in the bike left or were damaged in the accident. Brother and his wife started that after one of them temporarily lost a set. Keeps things on schedule and issues down. Max |

oh yeah, well....I have the spare key for my bike implanted just below the surface of my skin, that way if I lose the regular one I can just CUT THE SPARE OUT. Eh? How's that for smarts? |
Title: Re: Misplaced keys Post by DrT on 07/02/07 at 12:58:32 Tape a spare inside the rear light cover. Then all you need to do in an emergency is undo the two screws holding the cover in place. |

Thanks for the advice. Found the code and can now order a new key. |

Pretty smart, as long as you don't keep your pocket knife on your keychain! |
Title: Re: Misplaced keys Post by LANCER on 07/02/07 at 22:27:58 I have just one key left for my ig-switch, so my permanent solution is to rewire the bike and leave out the ig-switch and in its' place install a toggle switch. ON or OFF ...all I need is my finger to flip the switch and then hit the starter button. I may hide the toggle or maybe just leave it right up front. Or maybe use 2 toggles, one hidden and one up front. That would really confuse them. ;D If someone tried to steal it they may spend all of their time looking for the "keyed" ig-switch. |

I work in a furniture store. I carry two razor knives on my person pretty much at all times. The MRI machine idea I like. Reminds me of that one episode of "House." |
