Does anyone know where to get a set of original keys for my Z1 and Z1A from. Also is there a different key for the steering lock, Thanks Gum.

When you say "orignial", you mean a set with the Kawasaki "K" on them and stamped number code? Not just blanks cut for you, right?
Steering lock should be the same as the rest, if yours is different, I'd bet they've been changed...

Yep, I've used those guys. They are one of the two online key-making shops I've used and recommend. I was just wondering if he's not inclined to have a "copy", since he explicitly wrote "original"...

Still wondering...

Thanks, yes you are all correct, my bike [ Z1A] does not have a key at all. The seat lock says #793, im after the plastic original keys, x 2. Its a wreck at the moment, but complete and will be restored. Thanks.

I've read a coupld of different posts on keys here and I was wondering. Can you get just normal home hardware blanks cut as a spare or does it need to be a specific blank?

You need specific blanks, but the hardware store you deal with may actually have them. They differ throughout the years of our bikes.

I have had luck in the past with eBay sellers who find stocks of ORIGINAL keys, as well as certain on-line vendors who will cut a nice set for you and ship them to your door.

ok, I have found out that the number # 793 is off a KZ900. So im thinking that I will take all 3 locks out of it and take to the locksmith. That way I can see if they are all the same, then go from there. Thanks Gum
