I am thinking Ron Ayers, or would appreciate ideas where to get the proper blank? Kenny G

The blank the locksmith used was an ilco X118. It was listed in his catalog as the blank for some model Yamaha, but this guy, who obviously knew his stuff, took the time to match up my key to the diagrams in the ilco book till he found a blank that matched. The key he made works perfectly.

I went on eBay and found the blanks at a good price - but be sure to match up the photographs provided as there are several different shapes of keys used on the Savage.

I will ride the bike into their shop next week and they will cut the key and test it for fit. Thank you for the input. Kenny G

I can't imagine that Suzuki would have changed the ignition switch guts between '06 and '13, since they haven't changed anything else, but you never know

The key you are going to get is "one" possible key....there are several different keys used on the bikes - one size doesn't fit all.

If you want to add it someplace...place it here for now: http://suzukisavage.com/cgi-bin/YaBB.pl?num=1150464511/0

It does not belong in the Off Beat Measurements and Sizes.

We need to get the key/ignition switch, gas cap, tool box lock issues combined into a usable thread in the Tech Section.

I have a really good locksmith here, and they had the Yamaha blanks as well that fit my bike just fine.

I did, however, have to order the fork lock blank (don't have my keys here to say what flavor) that some claim is a forklift key blank, but the same locksmith cut it as well and it works perfect.

Hope your luck with your locksmith is as easy.

So keep that in mind. I ended up using a yamaha yh50 blank, but it didn't work until i did some extra cutting by hand with a file - a little too"thick". I was able to make it work, but there's probably a beter match
