Spyder Keys and keyring

[SteveMac]

Can somebody post a photo of the oem key holder? I bought mine with 200 miles on it and I do not remember anything to hold the key.

Larry,
I'd gladly send mine to you if you want the factory holders. I have two of them. Brand new, never used!

Just PM me your address.

That's the safest spot to stick a hole in them! :thumbup: (I noticed that also...)

In the pants pockets, not the jacket. Too many keys get locked in the trunk after the driver stips off a jacket and throws it in the trunk. Now, if you are in the habit of also stripping off your pants when you get off of the Spyder, you should stick the key somewhere else!

Use the holder - I have mine on a ring, clipped to my belt - just pull it out of the holder to use…

:agree: I too have mine on a ring with my house key, a key for my storage space (where I park my bike), and a key for my trailer.

I have lost my key two times, and each time because I got out of a seat When I got out of the seat the key pulled free because it was pinched between my body and the seat.

Yet, these two instances have not stopped me from using the sheath. I just double check when I get out of a car or restaurant booth.

Stopped by the dealer today and ordered a key holder.
$11 Wooh!

Like every other plastic part for the Spyder, it's made of the good (expensive) stuff: 25k plastic!

This has also recently come up in here...

It sure looks like a viable option! :thumbup:

This one already has the keyring hole in it... It's much easeir for those of us who are nervous about drilling holes in things. :shocked:

Agreed, but when you send him your key, he keeps the code, something about that scares me

key holders

Lots of great ideas here about keys and holders. my solution to the problem is to put the holder on a lanyard around my neck when out for a ride. it also reminds to take the out when i stop. on really long rides i do carry the spare with in the trunk. no problem there because i now have a non chipped key that will open the both trunks and that key is on a key ring that i carry in pants pocket.

Holders..!!

Sheath has worked well. Lamont has the IPS key holder fir those who like the system, BMW makes a holder that works with Can Am keys and there are some others that have started making holders. I just ordered blank from lockpicks.com $7.95 had my local lock smith clone and cut $30.00 and the key has a hole in it. There you have a few solutions. hyea:

another key holder solution

Unless I missed it in reading, but a small company makes leather Spyder key holders. they are a little expensive - $25.00 plus shipping and handling (about $6.00 in my case). they had quick service and it is a very nice product the URL for them is
