Fuel cap won't unlock.

[Lukaz2205]

I have a FZS600 Box eye 2000 model.

I picked it up cheap for the princely sum of 200 quid (came with rear paddock and a mig welder too)

Problem is I haven't got any history of it other than the person I bought it off, he left it sitting because he couldn't do it up.
He said it got left in a hedge for 6 years due to it over heating, and as far as I'm aware it's all original, bar an aftermarket chainguard/hugger.

But as I only have 1 key I don't want to snap it, but is there a way to remove the tank cap without unlocking it? Tanks absolutely mint for what it's worth so don't want to buy another.

Ive been Plusgas-ing down the lock hoping it will free but to no avail.

Any ideas?

Does the key open the seat?

If ignition lock was changed they may not have changed all the locks and you may be trying to open it with the wrong key :eek
