You could very well be correct...But if I remember correctly when I needed a key I took one of my originals to the dealership to get a new one and the guy went thru an envelope of keys but none were a match for mine...Quite possibly they were just the blanks but I do remember getting it done at a locksmith...Sorry for any confusion...

No confusion, just wondered if it had changed since I was at the dealership is all. Wanted to know for future reference for my shop as well. I hope my post didn't come out wrong or offend anyone. Just trying to help.

 

No, no offense taken...This all took place in '06...My memory isn't what it used to be...lol

Howdy all......when I had a couple of spares made for me X2, the locksmith used a key blank branded Taylor with the blank number X112 and it says on the blank that it fits Yamaha........works for my Polaris though.........NoJoke

 

I know my Yamaha sled keys look like my Sportsman keys......Same shape and cut on both sides.........Makes since to me that the locksmiths can use the same blanks...........Caper.......

 

I did cover the Yamaha name with a rubber........NoJoke

 

I've learned through hard experience that you need to keep extra keys. Whenever I get something that has a key like an ATV, tractor, lawnmower, snowblower, tool cabinet, file cabinet truck box or whatever one of the first items of business is to get a few extras made. It doesn't cost much and it's cheap insurance. Label the originals and keep them in a central secure location then use one of the extras for daily use or for stashing on the vehicle or whatever.

It'll save you a major headache someday.
