The dealer should be able to make you a copy!

It's fuel injected, right? Let the pump prime, yes.

Go to the dealer, they should take care of the key.

They are called FRAME sliders for a reason... to protect the frame. Though, you will get conflicting opinions on them and whether anyone should have them or not. Personally, I don't care for them and wouldn't ever put them on my bikes - well, not the long straight ones... only the smaller mushroomed ones that go under the plastics that are designed to save the hard parts.

Electronics check and fuel pump priming. Let it finish. I've heard talk of bikes running rough and/or gauges acting up otherwise.

The whirring is the fuel pump... you don't have to wait for it, but i generally give it a second before I hit the starter.

As for the key, any lock shop can cut you another one. Cost me $3 for a new one.

okay usually I'm not in a rush to get the bike started so I will wait but just wanted to make sure.

I'm thinking the dealer's gonna charge me way more than a locksmith.

Let me know if you need some parts, I still got some for that bike. I need to ebay these to pay for what I just spent on my bike.

Puig clear double bubble

R&G no cut lower fairing sliders, these are the best no cuts I have ever seen and I don't think they are anything like normal no cuts. Its a two point heavy duty bracket.

Watsen flush mount paint matched front flushmounts with oem hookups

I have some other pieces I don't remember right now as well.
