hardbag keys
« on: July 10, 2012, 10:45:12 PM »
Bike didn't come with keys for the hardbags and its latch, anyone know where i can get a blank or precut key?  If precut, is there a sort of code number on the locks and where are they located?  TIA

From your avatar photo, it appears taht you've got the older style, Krauser bags..   I don't think that replacement keys are easily obtained for these.  The later BMW factory bags have code and/or can be rekeyed by a locksmith.   I don't think that the Krauser style bags actually had many different key configurations though..
For what its worth, I don't have keys for my old Krausers either.   I DO use safety straps around them to make sure they stay closed (the design is somewhat notorious for having the lids open up at very unfortunate times)

Found the stamped code on the Sudhaus locks, S150.  Emailed motorcyclekeys@gmail.com already, fingers crossed  ;)

Just got a reply from them, no joy, they've been discontinued for quite some time now.  Any other leads?
