Just bought an H1 74 The other day. Thank you all for your help with purchase. Only came with 1 key, and life span of it doesn't look good. I saw an article on a post the other day REF: 3 digit number and keys were available etc. However, On this key, it i so worn, numbers just not visable.I went to a huge key shop, in my area, Cookeville, TN with no luck. However, he said he could order the blank and cut it, however he has to order a minimum 0f 50,with both decided there may be a better way. He gave me the blank code if I could find one he would cut it, I haven't started e-bay yet. I will soon. ILCO is the company for a blank, either X18 or YH21. Any help would be great/ Tks Robert

There is also a number on the face of the switch or lock.

When you get that, PM Joker on this board, and I think on Brad's board too. He will make you the key for a reasonable price. He has blanks already.

You can look at the number stamped on the lock to get the key number and Joker can send you a key already cut at a very reasonable price.....

Pictures of each years key number, fitment and cut would be a kick arse addition to the database!

Sounds like a great project for Batman - uh, I mean Joker!

IGN - Ignition
FT = Fuel tank but probably seat and steering lock as well - open to input on revised nomenclature/abbreviations/format/whatever
Looks like more blanks need to be filled in - 901-909 for the S1/B/C/KH?

No guarantee's on accuracy,it's a rough draft

Strange they only made a couple keys on some models. :eh: You know now I look at that chart I gotta laugh at myself sometimes. I remember when I first got the S3, I went in to the dealer and told him I needed an 806 key. Guy told me the key had to be in the 900 range. I whip out the key and show him its an 806, till we turned it over. :shifty:
