You need to be careful you don't accidentally make the locks so easy to open that almost any key will fit.Can you not just source a keyed alike set? They are still around but admitably they ain't cheap. Spotted one on Ebay a month or so ago. I have 2 sets of them on my 500. As it's wearing a 550 harness, the top ignition lock pairs with the seat lock and the steering lock pairs with the lower ignition lock.
If you’d kept the other lock you could have just swapped the barrels over
That’s how we learn things Ash, we take a risk, if it doesn’t work out you’ve not exactly lost a lot, it would have worked as well, body is slightly different but the barrels would have been the same.
I've taken apart quite a lot of NOS parts in my time.
