Hello,
The story goes that I think my bike keys have gone out in the recycling - damn recycling bag under the key hooks :(
So, I'm looking to have a new key cut, although I haven't got a spare.....
Whats the best plan of attack for this? Remove the ignition barrel?? Not too sure where I should start....
Anyone recommend any companies near Bristol that could sort this out?

Thanks for you input guys
Cheers
Tim

(oh no...)
Assuming you havnt put the steering lock on, it is relatively simple to replace the ignition barrel, there are 2 bolts under the yoke on most bikes along with the relevant plugs etc...

David Silver are closed until the new year(Jan 4th), Fowlers are closed until Wednesday... do you have another bike/car?

Landmark bikes @ Saltford have a lockset?
