Long story short, I have a replacement frame with clean title. I have lost my only key. Ordered keys from the vin# but they don't work. Is there anyway I can find the 4 digit key code without the vin# or original key. Maybe # stamped in the ignition somewhere? Any help or suggestions greatly appreciated. |

go on Ebay and buy another ignition. probably your best option. |

Or take the ignition lock to a locksmith and have him make a key. |

so which key did you use for the gas cap and seat lock? as in, did you also take the old gas cap and put it in your replacement frame? if so, then obviously you either really need the old key code or you replace the ignition, gas cap, and seat lock. was the bike yours before the frame replacement(as in you did or had someone do it?) if it was yours with the old frame, hunt down some old registrations or insurance paperwork for the old vin... or yes, get ahold of a locksmith |

If you put the original vin in your profile here on BadWeb, maybe Blake can help you. |

you'll need to pull it out, but the code is stamped on the side of th ignition switch, at least it is on mine. |

Yes I see how this might sound odd... I just got it hince why I just joined, but never the less thanks for all the suggestions, I'm going to remove the swich and see if I see anything on mine, otherwise I'll be ordering a new switch and gas cap off eBay. |

He is good to go. I work with Cmostech, and I helped him find his new scoot. He had some bad luck hanging onto his only key. |
