Stevo:
Yes thats it,
where can I get a key dear chap ?
Cheers

Oddjob:
No offense Stevo but nowhere. No one sells these anymore. I have no idea why I have a new one myself, I did have the same lock on my 500 tank many many years ago and I had a spare key on the key ring, if I still had that key ring you'd be welcome to the key but I haven't seen that since the 80s.

You can either try and find a new one and you'd get 2 keys with that or remove and fit the proper lock like this.

Laverda Dave:
The lock on my original 400/4 will open with any key!

Orcade-Ian:
Ah!
Now I see! From you description I was working the other way round!  Will a 1/4" drive 6 sided socket fit down the hole?  No scale evident, so not sure what size. You could always turn or grind down the o/d and stick it on the end of a short extension bar.

Mine is the same just takes the end of the key to work.
