Late for work

[strike_force]

Went to wash my baby the other day with a friend (he has the z750). All went well. Babies were shining and good as new. BUT the next morning when I woke up to go to work I put the key in and the damn thing wouldn't turn. Whent inside and took the spare one. No luck :banghead:

The result was that I had to lube it and was half an hour late for work. Fortunatly it was a typical shift. Just had to be there at 08:00.

Anyone else expirienced the same thing?

This happens for the first time. I asked a mechanic that I know and said that this is a problem that often appears in Yamaha bikes, especialy the R1, but haven't heard of it before.

I had not heard of that one yet... I am sure if it is out there we will find out here

I'm starting to notice this on my bike too. I usually move the bars in the locked position and push down hard on the key, that seems to work. I'll try my spare and see what happens. I have noticed that my regular key is getting some pretty sharp edges on the sides...
