Need a new key, can someone help?

Hi guys,

my bike was stolen from my buddy's garage (key was in ignition, yes I rang him a new a-hole)

Anyway the bike was recovered yesterday and now I have no key. I removed the ignition, but local locksmiths want 50-100 for a new key.

Anyone know a place online I can get one for say...10 or 20 bucks?

I can buy a new ignition and key for 40 but I would ike a key to open the seat and helmet locks, too.

Thanks

You could look for used ones which should be cheaper than new.

Any locksmiths on this forum???

Look carefully at the locks. If yours is like the KZ650 there will be a number stamped next to the keyhole on at least one of the locks (KZ650 has a 3 didgit 8xx number). You often can find original keys with the correct number right on eBay for about $12. They work; I bought 2 spares that way. Ed

no 3 digit number. 316158 is on the bottom of the unit though

I might be wrong, but looking at Kawasaki.com it appears that the KZ550 keys weren't sold precut like the KZ650; but the key blanks are still listed as "active." I wonder if you took that lock number to a dealer if they could cut or order a key for your lock? Worth giving them a call. Ed

i will give it a try.

Thanks

No eBay APP ID and/or Cert ID defined in Kunena configurationHere's a key blank listed on ebay.



Thinking KZR member rstnick is a locksmith and has posted lots of valuable information about replacing keys, etc.

And believe there's at least one other locksmith that has also posted, but I can't remember who.

Could also try the Search Forum function.

Good Fortune!

I am a Locksmith, and can cut them by the code #.
That 6 digit # doesn't sound like the code # though.
I had/have a list somewhere of the different key # series, but can't find it at the moment.
I'd have a work on the computer.
Looking for the list here as I've posted in the past...

Found the list of key code numbers in another post.

You still looking for a key?
What's the number on the seat lock or the side of the broken ignition switch?????

3 digit # Find that ask someone who has a factory key to make a duplicate!

I have a #788 and a #791 late 70's Kaws

if you find the 3 digit number, contact johnnys vintage kawasaki.....go to the website...he lists all the keys in stock that he has....i havent been there in a while , but iirc he gets 10-20 for a factory key....
