At the recommendation of fast fred, I went to www.motorcyclekeys.com/vintage.html for my cb77 and cb160 keys. John over there answered on the second ring, checked to see if he had the original keys with the honda logo, sent them the same day and even included a brass key of a different cut because apparently the t keys that end in a 46 sometimes were meant to be reversed, so the 64 cut was included just in case so we could work out replacements.
The 46 ended up working. Keys are in great condition and i'm very pleased with the care he took on this order. I recommend him highly.

he's gone to hawaii until 3/24/09, unfortunately, but if you can wait till late march, i'd go with him.
he said he can still send blanks while he's on vacation.

If you don't mind me asking, what did your order run?

2 original honda keys, and 2 copies for 80 bucks.

35 for an original key, and 5 bucks for a copy.

25 bucks to purchase a blank and have him cut it to code.

Seems a little "pricey" to me, no?

well buying the blank would be 10 bucks or so... then finding a blacksmith that's capable of cutting it to code, maybe he'll only charge you a few bucks, maybe 15 like this feller.

10 bucks more for an orginal key? maybe it's pricey, but it was worth it to me to have a working key to my CB77 and CB160 without having to deal with someone in thailand or scanning ebay.
