follow up to key woes

[solemnboy]

As you may remember I lost a whole bunch of keys. Anyways the one i need to still get is a replacement for the allen key, for the oil filler plug. I think it's a touratech but I am not sure? does anyone know where i can get a replacement? Preferably one with the hole in the allen key to attach it to a key ring?

thanks

maybe?

Isn't it just a standard allen key size? If so cut an allen key up a drill a hole through it.

Splash out on a full size 7mm allen key with ball end and keep it with your spare ignition key in an inside pocket in your jacket

nope - but....

.... i've cut plenty with a hacksaw so I 'spose I must have some VERY special hacksaw blades!

PLEASE don't put an allen key in your jacket pocket - it would make a hell of stabbing pain if you fell off and landed on it just so!

You often find 7mm Allen Keys in the lower priced sets available in markets and Poundstretcher type shops.

Also,7mm Allen headed screws are used on some French car brake calipers,so try a motor spares outlet too.
