Lost Key! Help!!! 1977 550k
« on: July 09, 2014, 07:12:37 AM »
Hey guys sorry for a repost, I know there are plenty of threads with info on where to find the key code but unfortunately I have no seat lock on my bike and on the 77 550k the steering lock is shared with the ignition. I've looked all around the ignition for a code but am unable to locate it. Is anyone able to post a picture of exactly where this code is ? It's driving me nuts, I just wana get on the road. Also is there a specific key for the 77 550k ?  Thanks for all the help guys!

Did you pull the switch out on it ? that's the only way to see it,you gotta search all over the aluminum casting on that switch...you'll find it. very small stamped number/letters
75' CB400F/'bunch o' parts' & 81' CB125S modded to a 'CB200S'
  I love the small ones too !
Do your BEST...nobody can take that away from you.

Well I removed the plastic
Cover which exposed the top of the ignition and I was able to get a glimpse all around it but no I have not removed it. I guess I was expecting the numbers to be easily visible, I guess that will be my first step when I get home, sorry for the obvious question!

When I'm at work all I can think about are my cb's, I thank everyone for your problem solving help !
