I could do with a new ignition key for my Fazer. Got both keys when I brought the bike, but I was finding the one very clunky and difficult to use. Yeah I lubed up the ignition, WD40, Vaseline, 3-in-1 oil etc. One particularly cold day in the winter, I turned the key and the whole Meta alarm key fob casing just disintegrated around the stub of a key. 
The key looks ever so slightly bent and rather worn/discoloured on it's teeth.
So I just switched to the other key (and Meta keyring button), which worked perfectly and gave me no problems. However I assume this is the master key, and probably not such a good practice to use everyday. Right? Also, now I recently replaced the Meta alarm, I have a new key fob. I don't want to muck about with the master key to get it to fit into this key fob. Appears the metal needs trimming slightly and a hole drilled into to secure it into fob.
So, where can I get a replacement key? Will any good lock smith be able to do it? Will it need sourcing directly from Yamaha? Or is it going to be a new ignition barrel 'n keys bundle?
Also, any tips of fitting a key into the Meta key fob?
