My bike is missing the seat lock. The part that screws on to the frame and accepts the key, has the helmet lock, etc. There are a few on eBay, some of which have no keys and are very cheap. It would be nice to get a keyless one and have it matched to the ignition that I already have, rather than pay extra for a set with key and then have to carry around an additional key forever. Does anyone know if it is possible to have these re-keyed to match?

Also if anyone has a spare seat lock in decent condition, especially one with a key if they are willing to part with it for cheap, send me a PM.

Thanks!

A good locksmith can rekey pretty much any lock.
I've even done it myself.

OK, I bought a cheap one with no keys and I will have it keyed to match. Thanks for the tip!
