I never said he accused me of anything. He ASKED me if I still had the keys. Amazing how a story about lost keys turns a stranger into an A$$HOLE. Just because he works at a Harley dealership shouldn't put points in the a$$hole column.

The dealer lost his keys, not your keys. Same thing happened to me on my 08 trade. The dealer called me twice about something on my old bike and I told him both times that I had left it in the saddle bag. Then the new owner called me about the owners manual and I told him I left it in the saddle bag. The clean up guy had put it all somewhere and not put them back in the bags.

I kill a lot of time at the dealership and they are always looking for dome keys they lost. lol

Don't worry about it.

My dealer takes the key fob and ty-raps it to the handle bar in front of you .....and you get the bike back with the key still ty-rap'ed to the handle bar. Seems to work.

In regard to cutting barrel keys any locksmith can cut them. As to H.D. using only so many key #'s, my friends and I purchased four bikes one day in '81 and 3 of them took the same key.
