Thread: Ceremony of the Keys

Ok, I'm a Brit. We are a bit key obsessed (we even have a ceremony about them).

Well as we add more luggage options and security items the more keys we accumulate on our bike keyring (nine on mine by my last count) .

Well surprise surprise Mallow1 had to tinker with even that aspect of BB life. So I ditched the ring and went velcro!

That's an SD card holder zip round pouch with the SD card slots ripped out. The inside covered in velcro (hook n loop) with each key having the other velcro element on the key head itself.

So all nine keys are held securely in a small thin case. No rattle, no fob button accidentally pressed, all quick release (nothing to dangle around the ignition causing scratches and wear!).

Keys are:
Left side
1. Givi monokey (topbox & panniers)
2. Ignition key with datatool alarm fob
3. Abus disc lock

Right side
4. Corbin beetle bags & smuggler seat
5. Driveway padlock
6. Xena alarmed bullet U-lock (bike mounted)
7. Xena U-lock (ground chain and floor anchor mounted)
8. Artego alarmed disc lock
9. Ignition disc lock reminder blank

How does everyone else manage?

LoL, enough clever folk out there to be able to create copy keys from pictures! Unlikely to happen, sure, but why even risk it &#x1f609;

TBH, I'm as bad- never go more than couple of hundred yards from my baby when out, she's alarmed, hissed, another immobiliser and got a pager with locator. It's sad we need these things. And an alarmed disc lock

Firkin hell!!!! You too! &#x1f609;
