Locks for steering, ignition and seat with one key?
« on: June 16, 2022, 09:23:59 PM »
Hey all

I can find locks for seat and ignition with the same key. I can't seem to find locks for steering lock, ignition and seat with one key. Does that not exist? My locks and keys are all over the place, and the steering one doesn't work at all. I would like to clean up that mess if possible.

The steering lock on all my Hondas have been a different type of key to the Igniion/seat/tank lock that are the same.

You can get a CB500 with all the same key but not the 550 as they changed the steering lock to one that used a different type of key.

Really? I thought they came from the factory with the same key for all three locks?

Not the 550, as I said, different type of key used when they moved the steering lock from under the bottom yoke to the headstock.

That's because it's a bored out 500 essentially, I'll bet the steering lock is under the bottom yoke.

Does the 550K0 have the ignition lock under the tank still? or between the clocks like the 550F.

That’s why it has the same key for all the locks, same as the 500 model.

Does that mean that my F2 is a UK model?
