ok some of you might have read about my loosing key fiasco the other day, basicly i have got the ignition barrel off and this is what i need to find out..

"I looked at the ignition barrel whilst attached to the lead and noticed a metal plate just were the cable come out, so i investigated a little further to reveal that its a easy job to take that off and the little white plastic bit with the connectors ( which thank god only can go on one way down to the T shaped spindal it has to go back on ) then under that is a black almost circle with cut out tabs thing, which i pulled out to reveal that is what the cord is connected to. So now i have the ignition on its own without having to mess with the rats nest of cables around the bottom half of the airbox. Willl this work still if i get a key made up 2moro and assemble it back the way i found it????........"

I just need to find out if the electrics will still be ok when i have a replacment key made up 2moro or will it trip somthing out and stop working?? Any help would be very very apreciated.
Cheers,
and happy riding in this PERFECT!! April weather

Good man well done. Personaly I would have lifted the tank and air box and unplugged the ignition switch from there But so long as you can take the bit where the key goes to a lock smith then he will be able to make a key. Then just put it all back together as it was and off you in for a ride

lol nice one cargo, well its all down to tommoro now and *fingers crossed* if they can make a key..... and i cant wait to get out on the bike!! and hopefuly "touch wood" my new can is here in time for the poole bike night......

Dont get too excited it night take a day or two to get your key made. With the way you have dismantled the ignition it might be possible to turn it on without a key ?

I was thinking that, i know how much the key turns so i know where the white plastic bit should be when the key is on.. a bit of sticky tape and a short ride out (not leaving the bike) would do... i just dont wanna put her all back 2gether to have to dismantle it for a new key... hmmm anyways off to the locksmiths to find out the verdict... *gulps*
