You know Maddman, it just occurred to me that a fellow with even basic locksmithing skills could maybe make a few bucks at a rally like that one up in Oley, PA, where folks haul in their keyless barn finds. It might not get you that house on the beach, but could at least pay for the trip. I mean, last year there was one fellow that just rebuilt magnetos, and he seemed busy enough to make it worth his while. Hell, I'd be your first customer, since I never got a key for my steering lock. I know they're crap, and usually just take a good kick to the handlebars to break (that's how those two Bozos got my Bella scooter), but I'd like one all the same. The more even minor deterrence the better. Like they say, "You don't have to be faster than the bear, you just have to be faster than the other guy running." If my bike seems even slightly more trouble than the one just up the street, that's often deterrence enough.
