Spare Keys for your ST's!

I was in need of a new key for my bike because I only had the one which was bent and had started to get quite brittle.

I found the website www.hondakeys.com which is run by a guy in the States called Mark. I emailed him and he quoted me for 2 NOS keys for my bike. Including shipping it came to £17ish which is pretty good considering the rubbish exchange rate we currently have.
After paying via Paypal I had the keys in just a few days - a really great service! The keys fit perfect and I am very happy as it means I won't have to buy a new lock set!

Drop Mark an email (*****) if you need some new(old) keys for your bike. He stocks loads of different Honda keys and is bound to have the one you are after!

HI James
The keys you got were they the original style I:E with the HM logo so that the plastic cover will still fit over the key top.I have just ordered a set of Continental Zippy 1's @ £23.50 each as my lady's were original Duro's but had started to crack around the sidewall which would have failed on MOT. I have got the motor running but it will need some tuning so MOT should be soon and then the open road. !!!!!

Hi Tufty.

Good to see you back on the site! Yes the keys are the original style and the plastic cover will fit over them. I didn't buy any plastic covers though as they worked out quite expensive but might buy some later down the line.

Wow, you got those tyres cheap! I paid over £60 for the pair! Where did you get them from?

How long do you think it will be before your bike is back on the open road? WHEN I get my frame and other parts back from the powder coaters my bike will be going back together fairly rapidly. I am hoping for it to be on the road by the last week in May.

Hi James
just got home from a lazy weekend in Kent read your post the tyres are from a scooter shop in Margate also my local Honda shop only wanted £25.00 each, thanks for the info on the keys.
Should have my bike ready next couple of weeks customers permitting and need to sort out last years tax.
