Exactly!

There should be a thumbs up one...

The obvious answer here is: Poke a little deeper before you ask... However, there are a few points that discount the obvious answer. 1/ Asking early gives us time to poke the most likely options and the unlikely options while you continue to look. 2/ There's a reason we're here and helping: We like a puzzle! 3/ Getting strange answers often triggers something in your own mind. 4/ Why not? So, keep asking! lol

Are you 100% certain that the brake lever isn't bent at all?

My paranoid suggestion for this instance would be: Send them the pictures, order the key to a FRIENDS house instead of yours... Or a PO box or dropbox or something... Just not the same address the bike is kept at.

What can I say, just because I'm paranoid, doesn't mean people aren't out to get me! lol. I can delete this thread if you want, but that doesn't solve the main possible issue...

Errr... I hate to say it but... Yes, you can cut a key from a picture, I can cut a key from a picture with nothing but a blank and a needle file, that's not the issue... The problem is, what you've just done, is given some random person on E-Bay your bike key, AND your address!!! For the price of a key, that could turn out pretty expensive... And even if you DO get a perfectly working key in the post, doesn't mean they're not gonna come round later..!

ROFL! Having used to be a shoe repairer / key cutter, I can confirm that's normal for Timpsons... Go find your local cobbler, he can probably do it.

No, I'm not named after Mr Plissken, it's not after the drink either... I have scars on my left index from a 14' Burmese Python bite

Aaah, that would have been good to know earlier... lol The part numbers are different. If they were the same, they would usually have the same part numbers. That said, for £28, go for it... Buy it and see if it fits... Ok, I'm just completely lost now... Exactly which part are you looking for???

You can never tell... But it's strange that fowlers only lists one year. Got a link?
-
From what I can see, Fowlers don't list one for 1990, just for 1983. AND it's not available... Got a link?

Watch out for shipping prices!
