Picture of the owner’s key that I chose to leave with him ( he still needs it):
3188E085-AFB0-45C0-B917-2AC3DF0D925F.png (16.41 kB . 266x576 - viewed 462 times)Does anyone have one that looks to match this profile that they can loan/rent/ sell me?
Otw, I will buy a blank for $10 and slowly shape to match.

I’d like to improve my OP:
I have the key to my RT
I have a used top case from a K1100 that I want to rekey to match my bike. I don’t *have* the key to this massive top case. I have a picture and a tracing, and can drive the 30 minutes back to the seller’s house to use the key he still has. He neeeds to keep it. At least for a while.

And ps - I tried my ignition and to other Bmw Neiman’s I have. All slid in but would not rotate.It and they won't rotate the lock until you remove the cylinder and modify the tabs to accommodate the key according to instruction in the Locks section. Read up and see if it will work for you.

Blanks are unlikely to work until they are cut into some pattern.
I understand this. :-). Either I hand file a blank or buy/borrow/ rent a match to use to extract the tumblers to allow for rekeying to my existing key. A one use situation!!
That’s all assuming that I *must* have a matching key to extract the tumblers.
Thanks again for the quick replies. :-)

Why not have the guy you bought the box from have one cut and buy it off him.
Regards Martin.
this.
there are are several standard ILCO key blanks that will work in Brick ignitions and cases. just take the original (and the case) to any locksmith and get a key made. total cost less than $5.

Thanks for the suggestion.
He only has one and its the folding type key.
It’s my assumption that getting a key duplicated from that original folding type is not something that my local hardware store knows how to do anymore. Ie, it doesn’t fit their automated key duplicator. I haven’t looked into this option as it seemed unlikely to work.

You have posted photos of bricks with seats unknown to you.
Now it is time to show us your brick and that top case.
We do not know if it is OEM 22 or OEM 35 or EMGO or Sidenrock or GIVI or Shad or other.
So make sure your next post contains proper photos of your brick and of the LT top box.

I believe the same key will fit either. It did today.
For you Johnny, anything. :-)
Here’s some pics before I started removing the speakers:

Just the typical 35L top case and mount bracket, right?
I’ll have a few holes to patch and it will get a quick paint job.

I had one done off an ebay seller (not for a BMW) and the process worked (the service in this instance was for a fold-out key and the cutting from image was an option)
Do a google search or just search ebay

Since you have an image, there are services that will make your key from thatIf you try that route, I'd suggest the picture of the actual key, and not the tracing....
