well here it starts,went and picked up an old tzr tother day and was well impressed the fella i bought it off is famous no seriously its better than i could have hoped for considering its been stood for 10 yr
the fairing and bodywork are all original,bit tatty only 1 lug missing so result.the bike has done 40thou so its a credit to its former keepers,the throttle will not turn and the power valve brain is missing,but for the money well chuffed
will be updating as i go along so any help/advice is always welcome,look forward to when its all done and hopefully i will have learnt a fair bit,met a few decent folk,and have a nice classic that i bet most of your lot learnt on
oh yeah nearly forgot,there are no keys for the bike but the guy i bought it off says there may be a number on the seatlock barrel to match the key,does anyone know owt about stuff like this as i reacon one key will fit all the locks including the helmet lock and there aint to many a them left on these.till next time see ya _________________ where do we go from here....... |

Hi
Having had to get a key cut from a lock recently I was told the number might be there, but the locksmith said the number did not relate to a key. Also while the ignition key might well match the other locks it is likely that the tank lock has less tumblers, hence you cannot get a key cut from that (easy to remove) lock.
All the best

Well I know in the USA that Honda owners can order keys from the dealer based off the numbers on the backs of their helmet locks so you could always ask your friendly Yamaha dealer......
I think previous poster is right...a talented locksmith [not a keybar operative] should be able to cut you a key for your ignition lock [the minor locks, probably having less tumblers, aren't suitable] |
