| Posted : 03 Apr 2010 - 02:00 Post title : Any more keys and I'd have a piano... | | Ok, so this one kind of crept up on me, but I realize I may have a problem. After putting on the accessories, I realize that there are too many keys for this bike.
1. ignition 2. fork lock 3. locking gas cap 4. quick release backrest 5. Easy Brackets for saddlebags
I was planning to add a helmet lock, but now I'm reconsidering
How many more thinks can I lock up on this bike? A lock for the windshield, a disc lock, a lock on the saddlebags...
Any other suggestions? I may be going OCD...

On the TBird I have the 5 you have, plus key for locking bags and GPS. Fortunately the same key for the backrest/rack fits the windshield lock...total 7.

I came from a Yamaha V-Star and one key worked for the ignition, fork lock, helmet lock and gas cap - go figure... As an added bonus, the battery cover also had a lock which was accessible with the same key.
I had a second key for the removable saddlebag brackets, but that was it.
Did I mention that I HATE carrying around keys. Those little plastic barcoded tab things that every store in the known universe seem to have now drive me crazy!
ok, I'm done.
