I'm posting this in as many places and I can.
The other night my girlfriend's car was broken into and my key were clipped to her purse so I would not lose them.
Well...the purse is gone...and with it my keys...both of them.
I am a complete beginner just got my bike and starting to ride. Never thought to take the spare key off.
I thought it was good news when I hear about key codes but I guess my "code" was nothing but an identifier for the dealership to know which key went to which bike.
I have read many places that the seat lock as well as the gas lock hold the same "key code" information but every time I ask a dealership or Kawasaki direct I get a round around answer or complete denial.
Now their website says plain as day a dealership can order a new cut key by using the code. Are all of my local dealerships absolute idiots? One claimed key codes don't exist for any make or model!
So I need to break into my bike. Break into the back seat I guess. I read on the ninja250 forums that someone was able to use a coat hanger but for the life of me I cannot fathom how that is possible.
Just looking for some info. I'm not even sure if the locksmiths can make a generic key I may have to order an OEM blank.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
