Help-Can a dealer cut new keys on a Sportsman 500 by serial number or do I need to buy a new ignition switch w/ new keys?

Thanks,
Brian

A good locksmith can make new ones. An new ingitoin would make the wallet go on a diet you see what im saying so i would try that first. And i would have several keys made and pop the shifter **** off and put one in there.

Give the key # to your dealer and he should hook u up in two or three days.

My dealer told me there are only a few key patterns made for the Polaris ignition. I left my quad with him for service once, but forgot to leave the key. I apologized for making him push the beast into the shop for service, but he said don't worry about he just used one from one of the new quads that fit...

I just bought an old Honda CB350G Supersport with
no keys and a locksmith made some for $10. But I
took him the ignition swich and I was lucky he had
blanks for a 27 year old bike. Plan on a hassle if your ignition switch must be pulled.

Thanks for the input - I found the 2nd key. I am having copies made tomorrow. Another lesson in procastination! I recommend everyone have another key made.

Isnt there a way that you can start a Polaris without the key?I know that you can on Honda's.You just have to pull out a little switch going to the ignition.I looked at the wires running to my ignition yesterday,a nd I sawthere is no wires=(I dont get it.Why would a company put an altenitive starter if you still have to have the key?
