heeelp, i have realized after a long search 2 days that i have lost my bike key, yes it was the only one , and yes went through the standard 6 hour hunt in the most irrelevant of places... any way my plea is for advice ,,, how do i et a replacement , where and how much is this likely to cost??? is there a postal service to be recommended...

oh bugger they dont put numbers on the locks any longer, its my first job when i buy a bike with one key to cut another...might mean a new lock / key...others may know better. check your toolboxes as you have been working on it recently

if its any consolation i have lost my mobile phone...dohh!

and i have lost my mojo, hope this comforts you.

Have yuo tried in the fridge?? in the dogs basket ? all places i have known people find lost keys in the past

I've lost my voice but I can still type. A proper locksmith (not a cobbler with a bench grinder) should be able to cut a key from the lock, sure there isn't a serial number stamped on it somewhere?

Phone your local locksmith, costs nothing to ask does it?

Check in the bike! i have done this many times! lol. if your lock smith cant cut you a key from the barrel them im afraid its a whole new barrle and key. start with ebay im sure you can get a decent priced one on there.

A proper, professional Locksmith can impression the lock cylinder and cut a key from that, regardless of whether it has a number on or not. A set of three is usually £7-15.

He may even be able to use the VIN/reg to find the cutting index, if he has the right kit. Make sure it's one who specialises in vehicles and go for a small local firm, NOT one of the big national companies with the nice full-page colour ads in the Yellow Pages.

here's some practice key finding, off you go...

Have ya checked inside yer helmet, common place for mine, or inside gloves?

hammer + screwdriver ?
