GLENGRAVING Posted March 20, 2024 Report Share Posted March 20, 2024 Hi, looking to duplicate this Yamaha bike key, YH35RPB /RATE are too short, see pic Been suggested YH40RATE by nwkeys but they would be 3-5 weeks to import stock (and MOQ of 10), so hoping someone can suggest an alternative, or someone here has stock and can spare a blank? cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grahamparker Posted March 20, 2024 Report Share Posted March 20, 2024 Original has magnets in the head as there is an additional security plate that slides over the ignition barrel. You will need a blank the exact same length as the original. Similar to this new Suzuki blank. There are some blanks listed (on aliexpress) with the magnets but you have to work out the positions and the polarity of the magnets as well. I have done a couple for a local bike dealers after they ordered the blanks even though as main dealers coriginal blanks are not available only replacement ignitions (well that is what they where told by the main uk dealers).

I've never ordered anything off Aliexpress. Is it any good and does stuff take a long time to arrive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can do mate, had some stuff arrive within a week and other bits take months but everything has ALWAYS turned up. Gray 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
