  1. Well, the insurance claim is a bust. I have reached out to Yamaha and they keep no records. Seriously ridiculous to have nothing because it’s a security issue. You would think it would be as simple as looking up a vin, but they don’t want to have that info get out to the wrong people.
  2. The hunt continues. I may reach out to the sales team and see if they can contact the person that traded it in. Maybe they have the second key that I didn’t get. Last ditch effort before I pay for this sh$t show.
  3. Unfortunately, that was the sole key. I just wish they would have told me when I bought it that there was a key code I needed to keep close hold of so I could get more keys cut later on. Losing the fob sucks, but not having the key code is the money pit.
  4. Good morning Woody. Thanks for the response. So I talked to the dealership yesterday and they contacted Yamaha to figure it out. Long story short, the cheapest option to get a new fob and be rideable is $2k, but all new locks, keys, and 2 new fobs is $3.4k. My left bag has been locked since that ride, and starting to think it might be locked in there. Everything else is unlocked, and that left side has caused me problems before. I researched on here and found that it’s a common problem. I pushed and tapped on the lock and something fell off inside, so that’s not a good sign. Ordered a borescope last night to look inside the bag, so I’ll keep searching. I told my wife I will roll the bike through the house before I pay that much as a last ditch effort. Hoping we have good news in the next couple of days.
  5. Good afternoon and thanks for the add. I purchased my 2018 Venture about 6 months ago and had no clue there was a key code card that I needed if I lost my fob. About a month ago, I came home from a ride and I can’t find the fob anywhere in the house or garage. I have searched the entire house, gear, clothes, cars, etc, and no luck. Is there any way of getting the key code from the Vin number? Any recommendations on how to get a new fob without having to replace the ECU and other components? I am sure someone has experienced the same problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
