A local locksmith made a spare key from the number stamped in the metal on the old key. Cost was about $3.50

I bought a nos key from a seller for my bike using the four digit code on the ignition cylinder. It says Yamaha on it and works perfectly.
I had to look back through my buying feedback to find him. I don't see that he has any on auction but if it was me I would send him a message along with my 4 digit number to see if he had mine in stock. The guy's ebay handle is ajjohnson6. Let me know how it comes out.

Thanks all.I found what I was looking for on ebay.$18.50 for 2 keys cut to code.No hunting down a locksmith that's available when I could get to him although I do try to support the local economy when I can.
