Anybody got a spare key sleeve?

[bullant12]

I am going to the dealer eventually to resolve this but I just want to get an early start in case they don't have it... But here is the tale!

When I took my RTAC to the dealer for the 600 mile maintenace, hitch and fog light installation, I left the key with the sleave (or I think I did, I have looked over all my jackets:dontknow:). Forgot to ask for it when I picked it up and remembered later. Then my wife went to the dealer to pick up some paperwork and they claim they do not have it (or I actually think my wife asked for the wrong thing:hun:).

So... having said that, anyone got a spare sleeve? I don't need it now, but if you are going to Spyderfest I can trade it in for a beer or lunch...;)

I ordered two keys as extras, and they didn't come with sleeves; so I ended up ordering two sleeves also. they're about $9.00 (US). they're worth it though.

My dealer did not give me any so I will be ordering a couple as well.

Look in the trunk. When I give my dealer the key with the sleeve, the key ends up in my Spyder, and the sleeve with my name tag ends up in the trunk.

I looked already. The only thing they left was the rubbers that covered the fog light sockets.:chill:

I am trying not to be dense, but of what value are they? I got two with my Wing....one for my pocket and hid the other one on the Wing incase I loose the first one. I seem to be missing something here, however, I will be sure I get mine when I get the Red Rocket....:ohyea:

There is no hole in the chipped key. Use of the sleeve allows you to keep the key on a fob or chain, while in your pocket. You can drill the key safely. Lamont posted a pic showing the chip's location, but having another key on a ring with the Spyder key will scratch the handlebars. We use the sleeves.

The Spyders keys don't have a hole for a key ring. So some people when they put the key in their pocket snap it into the holder it makes it easier to find.:dontknow: There are other ways to use it also.

I have a lanyard thst I wear around my neck and keep my key in the sleeve on this.Also carry my spare on a lanyard and just tuck it under my shirt cant even tell its there

[M2Wild]

The sleeve enables you to attach Spyder's key to a key ring or whatever else. I have it attached to my alarm remote and a deteachable pig tail to my main key ring. Very handy little sucker.

I have a spare, you can have it, just participate in the "performance testing"...:thumbup:

They work great. I ran over one of mine and it cracked the part that you can put on a key chain, but it did its job and saved the key. now that I use the IPS , I can get by with one sleeve.

I think that we might need an experiment to see if an IPS-equipped key will hang safely on the sleeve...:D

Well... Thanks for the offers :hun:, but my dealer came thru and gave me a free key cover (after I helped the owner of the dealer sell an RTAC when I rode mine in while the customer was thinking about buying even after the test drive).:clap:

See y'all in Spyderfest!!!:doorag:

So far the dealer can help.

The last time I had my spyder serviced, I left the key in the ignition and kept the sleve on my key ring. Dale
