I don't get this What is the point of having an immobiliser etc if you can get a Red Key for $35 off fleebay ????????????????

It's a blank key so the costs would probably come when you get it programmed...that's just a guess.

Buying a red key is just like buying a blank canvas. You can put what you want on it, but until it is programmed (painted) it isn't going to do you a whole lot of good.

I know you can get blank Black (spare) keys, then use your Red Key to cut/program to fit your bike.........

A Red Key is a "one off" to match your locks, immobiliser and ECU, don't know how you can just get one of fleebay for $35 to fit..........

If you haven't got a Red key, you need to spend $2 or $3 grand replacing your ECU, locks and immobiliser..........

i pressume it is like buying a black key. you would still need your genuine "red" key to program it.

O...... I see said the blind man to the deaf bloke .............so it's a Black key in Red

yeah mate, the red keys cannot be recoded.

Hi and welcome to my auction

You are bidding on one Kawasaki Motorbike Transponder key

NOW THIS IS THE BIT THAT WILL COST YOU THE BIG BUCKS ................ ( Key will need to be cut and programmed into bike )

Transponder type 60

how is it tuned to bike when you neede the original red key to tune with??

Maybe someone in the know can make a spare red key from the genuine red key......

Or maybe there's not even a chip in there and people buy them have them cut and passed off as red keys when selling bikes..... :s
