Called in to fill up yesterday, usually turn the the bike to off, but had a blonde moment and turned to FSS, can't tell you why. anyway filled up, paid up, went back to the bike and spent 5 minutes trying to get the bike to start. All the key would do was turn round and round in the ignition, eventually it clicked and started.
Has anyone ever had this happen to them??, was this because i turned to FSS by mistake???, fob battery low ???, bike is now ok back to normality.
Anyone had this happen to them ??
get a grip and deal with it

Can't ever recall putting it to FSS.

To be honest when I first got the bike I didn't realise it was a stove key  :help:

Any decent high street key cutting facility will do you one. They even have Kawasaki template keys. Usual price about a fiver, worth its weight in gold.

O.C.

I just don't get it why you guys need 4 keys for your bike.  :no:
The later you brake the longer you go fast.

If they have the correct blank , and you have your master key, then there is no reason on earth why they shouldn't be able to cut a copy for you
