The previous owner never coded the spare key which seems puzzling to me. Going through the owner's manual PDF I find out that the bike comes with a key plate which was never passed on with the bike from a previous owner.

After a call to the dealer I bought the bike from it seems they use a coded key to programme a new one. I'm going to have to check this out with my local dealer next time I'm in Port Augusta.

If I loose the one key I have then I need to replace the ECU @$US600

If I get a new key for my car then I can programme the key from the car; to bad Honda didn't do the same.

Alan, are you absolutely certain the spare key has a RFID chip in it? I bought a spare key blank through e-bay which I then got cut and it looks just like the real one but it doesn't have a chip in it. I keep it in the right pie warmer to take off or open panniers and lock the steering. It is convenient for me and it cuts down the wear & tear on the chipped key. Your spare may be the same. If the original key breaks I can just take the chip out and put it into my spare. I have a chipped spare which I keep home unless going on a long interstate trip.

Cheers ... Mark

The spare key I have is an OEM Honda key and no way to see if there's a chip in it or not.
