Hi Guys, I am looking to buy an accident damaged k5 model GXS1400 and there is no coded key with the bike... Can anyone tell me if there is a way to find out the code (or get a dealer to deliver a key) or whether I'll need to replace the ignition system? Any idea of the cost of a replacement system? Thanks, Jim.

Lack of a speedo ... is also a lack of miles the bike has been ridden. Such a bike would have little value in my estimate. It would have to ride really well for a 20 year old bike, have a good sounding engine and shift smoothly. Check the oil for thickness and cleanliness. Be prepared to replace rubber parts, cables, etc. Are you looking for a short time ride? Low price, ride it till it stops and push it to the side of the road ... or are you in the "restore my dream" mode? If the latter, have a pocket full of money. Just MHO.
Do not damage your motorcycle. The key code is on every lock on the bike. Your helmet lock has the code. The back side of your ignition switch has the code . The number is also on your fuel cap, but you have to take it off to read it. The code is six digits long Example: 345A56 A56 is the key code or 999123 123 is the key code. You can take this code to the dealer or to a locksmith and have them cut a key.
you carnt disconect the hiss....the key has the code in it & is also linked to the cdi of the bike.....bike needs to read the key code to work...only way round is to relapce with new hiss/key.ecu..
start with the battery and check the fuses around .
did you check as well that your cut off switch is not damaged and may earth itself .
power issue s like this one you will have to work from the battery and work your way away from it .
check all wiring for bare wires that may contact the frame .
What you may have to do also is really look at where the bike has got damage and look around for cut wires or damage items .
Honda doesn't or claims it doesn't keep record of their transponder passwords, which is prolly true. Dealership will tell you Barrel, and ecu need be changed with new set of keys and tank/passenger seat locks which will run you $1400+. In principal, you can purchase a new ecu with matched blank keys and have them cut to your current key code, which should run you $800ish but i don't know if they will do it.. other cheaper options include: - $250-ish: send ecu to specialized shops that hack it (physically) and reprogram it and then send it back with two matched blank keys (plus $30-ish if you want them cut, but you need to send them the barrel also) - $400-ish: buy used and hacked ecu with matched blank keys..then cut them yourself to your key code. - $100-ish: buy used U.S. spec ECU eliminating HISS altogether, then you can cut keys that will work without programming the transponders, but you will need to alter your wiring harness or buy U.S. loom.( If you have a japan bike you have another wiring problem with the exhaust servo)
P.S. people telling you just to cut keys don't have /have dealt with HISS before. Good Luck
