A SUNNY DAY LOST

For months now I have been meaning to get a spare key cut for her.
Today when it is nice sunny and dry I really wish I had done that which I had meant to do.
I have spent all day turning the house upside down, hacked everyone off in the house and it's now dark and I have had to call off the search.

Does anyone know if the key number is on either the filler cap lock or the seat cowl lock. If it is how can I get either of them off without the keys.
Including labour Aprilia want £350 to replace the locks, but have someone who can cut a key from the key number.

An experienced locksmith may be able to cut a key to suit but they have to know old shcool tactics.
Only way to open locks minus key is to use slide hammer to remove barrel, trash the lock and hope it can be opened with screwdriver.
OR RING GRIFF sensible option

They made 2 new keys to match and posted back to me £30 in total. Saves drilling out the other locks!.........................I might just leave work early to get it all back together

Bargain - that's well worth knowing.
