Those recessed ignition switches were used in some CB450's also. Maybe someone here can make an ID with those numbers. Any Key still  and is the plug end round and brown ?

If it's 750 you will have interested parties. I need one too.

Looks like a key available for $9.95   http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-NOS-VINTAGE-HONDA-PRECUT-KEY-KEYS-T1546-T-1546-/200355670002
  Also scroll down and click on the key marked  T3 along the left on this other link. It is the same number as your ignition, T1546. One thing I notice in the pic is it does not have the plastic band around it like the keys did for the  K0 and Sandcast as shown farther down that list a little show as a T5 key. Hmmm  http://www.hondakeys.com/key_id.html

My K0 has a recessed ignition but neither of the two keys was the correct "plugged" key. I picked up two plugged keys from hondakeys.com for, as I recall, $30 about 6-8 years ago. Look at their site under key ID 's and T-5. It says you have send an eMail for a price quote now. At the time I bought mine from him they were going for $100/pair on eBay.

Are Yamiya making replica recessed ignition switches yet? I'd rather buy a new one, than mess around with 44 year old stuff for my eventual K0 rebuild. Cheers, Terry. ;D

I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"
