Where in the hell can you get a Big Dog spare key cut at???

[QMChief]

Lowes guy said their machine wouldn't cut it, Harley doesn't (ok I know thieves would try but damn have the persson show the registration or something!!!) so if Home Depot doesn't I'm down to one key??? I call bullshit.

You can always replace the switch with a new one if you lose the last key. Tractor supply sells keyed ignition switches.

I got a new blank from bigdogpartskingpin.com and took it to the local hardware store and they cut it.

Ahh, very usefull -- with that pic I bet I could make a key that would work on your bike!

You can just provide the number on the key cylinder to HDM and they will send to a precut key

Back when I got mine years ago, they had lost the key, the only key. It was the original switch on it. To our surprise the key to my Exmark Lawn worked great. I immediately changed the switch to a new one, new keys and all. Knothead put a new switch on mine last year when he had it fixing some stuff that was over my pay grade stuff to fix.

Didn't think about the hardware store I'm going to try ACE! Thanks!

I'll be damn, if the hardware store can't copy my key I'll try that! Thanks!

reminds me of Harley sportsters back in the day -- there weren't a lot of combos and you could frequently find another bike your key worked on from what I am told. (wasn't riding HD in those days)
I doubt there's master layout for the BDM keys but I could be wrong -- Will have to test yours in my bike when I see you next!
A key I could use on either of my K-9's would be nice.

I live in North Carolina and I ordered two extra keys from big dog of course they're not cut, and I took them to Ace hardware, and they did it. It no problem. Now I have three keys.

Yep ACE HARDWARE is one of the ONLY places left to copy an older model motorcycle key. Harley Davidson can't/won't do it, even though it would be classy of them to do that for bikers. Screw Harley Davidson.

I just have to throw it out there and it's off the subject. I can remember a time you could buy a skeleton key at the Five & Dime that would open all of your neighbors front doors. Very few neighbors in a small town would lock their front doors. That's getting really back in the past. My dream back then was to have a Cushman Eagle.
