How To Find Your Motorcycle Key Code - Lost Key?

[@thatcoolkidjoey]

I didn't even think about taking off my helmet lock. It was super easy thank you for the idea

[@colinpacker938]

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.

underside were? behind it or towards the floor

[@dillonostrander5286]

​@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🤣

[@djlancer88]

The bike in this video was my first bike. I gave it to friend who destroyed it. Needless to say hes never going to ride another one of my bikes

[@stevewalther9965]

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.

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]

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.

[@francisphillips53]

Thank you.. you helped me a lot. 😁😁😁😁

[@peterford9369]

My Triumph has a number stamped on the headstock lock. Would that be the number or code ur referring to? And how much is a key gonna cost? Thanks. Its a smaller key, the ignition key doesn't even start to go in to the lock. Thanks.

[@soniadavis1094]

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?

[@tanvirahmed7390]

dude i wanted a cheaper way...and how can i open if i dont have the key.

[@Haze4293]

hey mate kool vid but was wondering, for a cbr250r 2011 if i only have one key for my bike and want spares can i get spares cut and if so would i also need codes for these spare keys? from Australia in case that makes any difference.

[@Mrbooboo1972]

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.

[@r.c.collins6513]

Very helpful. Thanks!

[@jootai]

Thx for making this video

[@almonddavid]

Also, it's a myth that you can use a VIN to get a key code. I called Honda Headquarters on this. That is what they told me.

[@_TimTurb0_]

Yeah, yamaha just told me "not in the motorcycle world". So idk.

[@77nizzova53]

Gave Harley VIN, They sent the working key in the mail!!!!!

[@alexfloyd221]

Hey I have a 2020 cbr1000rr someone has stolen the keys too and I didn’t write it down in the manual I didn’t think about it but now I have not been able to ride for months. I am currently trying to get the bolts out of the ignition cylinder which have to be drilled out I am told but my forks are locked and im not sure how to get the drill with bit of that size in there to drill it. Any help would be greatly appreciated

I have a 1994 honda magna 750 . Will it possibly have a key code ?

[@ibexshein5528]

Hi I would like to seek urgent help as I lost my Honda.Forza 250cc(2005model) which i got a present from my Grandmum in 2007. Now I couldn't able to turn ignitiom switch and unable to start the engine. Can you please help to advise how may I get the key/bar code for it.

I Have the same Key code in the OEM Honda Ignition switch i bought Last week. It's Exactly C49

[@carmelozambrano5305]

please do you have any idea where is the key code for a 2006 Suzuki boulevard c50

[@jineanehall803]

Just lost my key to a 2014 Kawasaki 300 ninja. Dealership wants to put in a whole new ignition switch in which is stupid. I'm like there's got to be something else out there way cheaper and not a run for my money. Thanks for video

[@CODgod357]

Did it work out? I’m in a similar situation and just looked at the code under my gas cap

[@rapidbeautydelivery1065]

Hi I have a 1984 Honda Goldwing 1200 interstate, I'm unable to find my key code Will you be able to assist with helping me located it?

[@D0tot]

I have a 2014 honda shadow phantom. Would you happen to know the key code? I've been looking with no luck!

[@byronetchegary3045]

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]

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.

[@miguelarr4629]

@@colinpacker938 would a 96 750 nighthawk have the stamp on helmet lock?

[@colinpacker938]

@@miguelarr4629 I'm fairly sure a 96 would have a key number stamped on any lock. I believe it was later that Honda only provided a code stamped on a piece of metal.

Hi everyone. Where to get the lost Honda Forza 2019 key code? The dealer where the motorcycle was purchased cannot help.

I haven’t lost my key yet, but want a spare just in case. Can they cut a spare key using the original key without the key code?

[@chrisforet]

Home depot homie

[@coreyh7323]

I just put a scope, like a doctor putting one in your ear and read the cuts. It's faster than all that work finding the code on the bike.

[@michaelorfanides1413]

Hello I lost my only key and the locksmith wants $300 to come out and make a key I'm not working and I haven't ridden the bike for almost 3 weeks I don't know that it will start now I don't want the battery to go dead I had put a new battery in with the last bit of money that I had. 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. Thank you Mike

Ive recently misplaced my key to my Yamaha MT10 and ive called every lockmsith around and they said they cant make a new key for it without the key code. I have no idea where it is.

[@smallengineshop]

Yamaha doesn't always put key codes on their motorcycles, but if it is on the bike it will be on one of the locks and hidden, so you need to remove the lock to see it. You can also check the owners manual to see if a previous owner wrote the key code in the manual. Also check with your local Yamaha dealership to see if they can get a key using the VIN.

[@michaelorfanides1413]

I tried it with the VIN number the dealer wants to sell you a whole new ignition system plus labor which is about the same as the locksmith $300 they don't know anything about key codes they said and with an older bike I think they're just spinning my wheels they want to sell me a new ignition

[@Kobe29261]

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!
