ELSIE blank key codes

#1 Post by LC Cnd » Tue Sep 25, 2018 1:12 am

Does anyone have the ignition key codes for Elsies or suggest where I can find the data to create a copy without an original key? Heard the key blank is copied based on back of the ignition base - in this case is E324840 8712. Not sure which part of the # is applicable.

Found this info and answered the question:

Where to look:
*Paper tag under Ignition housing
*Stamped on the back side of the Helmet lock-- Hint: Removal is generally very easy
*Seat lock
Note: My book says that there were no codes on Yamaha past 1990. I still find codes on over half the 1990 and up bikes. No codes? Call dealer with VIN to obtain code.
Your code will be a letter followed by 5 numbers--or a 4 digit number.

Finding an orginal blank may be a challenge. Can obtain copies from here for $12.25 US plus shipping. Suspect I can get on locally cheaper : https://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&rct=j&q= ... bwXmU8L-ix" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

E324840 is the code. Buy any 'E' key and then make the tumbers fit the key, simple to do. You probably wont find the exact number online, but you can make an E shaped (and maybe another one tho i cant say with, A maybe?) work in that barrel.
