Hello everybody. It has been awhile since i have been here. I hope everybody is healthy and ready for another season of Buelling.How can I get another one of these made for my bike. I had two now one of them is missing. I don't like the idea of having only one key. I hope it is not too expensive.

Regards

Mike

Easiest way is through the factory.
If you peel the plastic cover off of the key you have left, you can see that your key has a number on it.
if you go to a dealer, they can have new keys made for you, using this number.

You should probably write it down somewhere too just in case you lose the last key!

Just take your vin to the dealer. They can get the key code for your bike and order ones up already cut.
I can't get the key, but if you pm me i can look up your key code.

Alternatively, just about anybody else's tuber key will do.

Just to clarify, my M2 will start with the key from Buellterrier's S1, my M2 key won't start his but will start another friends X1, his X1 key apparently works in a number of other tubers.... you get the picture, I've even seen them started with an old biro or a bit of plastic pipe once the lock gets a bit used.

Best of luck.

Barrel key? I had a couple made for my X1 for about $3.00 each at the local lock smith shop.

Woah! I didn't think a locksmith could do that.

Any good locksmith shop can make one for you, I had 2 made last week, cost me $8.
