• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Keys... I found this blank on eBay - anyone tried one?

Okay; I found this KeyBlank on eBay...

Supposedly it has a spot in it for a chip... I'd even be happy to use it as a dummy for unlocking stuff when I lock the keys in the bike by mistake. :D

Has anybody tried one yet?

($5.99 plus shipping...)

No!!

The Kwick key shop here has blanks with and without chips but that is a convertible model and at a great price. Then when they find the way to dupe the 2014 keys you just add the chip... smart!! :2thumbs:

The seller was "Motomart..." (Forgot the numbers... :opps:)
I took a peek at his "Store", and now nothing is being listed.
When I get it; I'll put his information in here for you! :thumbup:
 
If you held an OEM key next to a non-chip key cut for the ignition, would it work?

Reason I ask, I just had a new ignition installed and I kept one of the "old" keys. While this key will no longer work in the new ignition, I assume the chip in it would?

If so, it could be paired with a non-chip to be used as an extra key.

Holding a programmed chipped key beside the non chipped key will work.
One of your old keys would have been needed to get the DESS to accept new keys to program. It may still work if the tech did not repeat the program a second time. The spare key you had at home will no longer work. It was not present during the programming of the new keys and is automatically deleted from the DESS.
You should be able to buy a key blank with an empty slot for a chip. Cut the chip out of the old key and insert in new key.
 
:agree: Yup! :thumbup:
As long as it's not a 2014... :gaah:

I think what I said should apply to a 2014 as well. I never mentioned anything that changed for 2014. 2014 has a different chip and uses BUDS instead of a Master Key, but the end result should be the same.

I poked around eBay and couldn't find that key blank. Please post the address for the blank. The dealer wants $48.00 for the blank plus a charge for cutting. At this time, I'm only interested in the blank to hide on the bike to get into the trunk.

Thank you for your help

What year is your Spyder, 2013 or older? Is the groove configuration the same for 2014? In any case, I have several Ilco X270 blanks available. These can be cut for 2013 and earlier, maybe 2014 also, to open your trunk. I'll send you a couple for $10, postage paid. Pay me via Paypal, you paying the Paypal fee. If interested send me a PM.
