Keys
« on: August 15, 2020, 04:55:24 PM »
Next question!
I've no key with this bike from DK. Ignition barrel looks standard but can't see a number but seat lock has 16978 stamped on it so hoping that that key will fit all 3 locks. I've searched 'vintage Honda keys 16978' on DS. net and ebay but no results - any suggestions or advice?

500k2 Bryan
Edit - as result of your response and re-checked - could be T6978!

Hi

I took all three locks in and the locksmith found the number and cut the keys from that.
