Default How do I get a duplicate key?

I have one original, but want a spare. I went to a honda dealer and they said they'll sell me a blank for $8, but they don't know where to get it cut. Can any key maker do motorcycle keys or does it require special equipment?

As long as you have the blank, any key maker can make it.

I took my motorcycle key to a locksmith, but they said they don't copy motorcycle keys...?! Anyways, I just went to a local motorcycle shop, and they copied it for me for $6. Just my 2 pennies.

I bought blank for $2.00 @ my local honda dealership and brought it to a regular key maker.

I know that Suzuki has different blanks for motorcycles and cars, If he has the Blank, just about any key place can make it.

Dealerships can't look up the VIN and create a key from that? That's how I get my Honda Civic keys. The ONLY key I have is kind of worn out and I was thinking about getting a new one, but if they are just going to make a copy, wouldn't they make a copy of a worn-out key?
