Ignition key only, and a rubber SV key ring.

Then I have gate key, shed key, all other keys on another ring in my pocket. I chopped a footpeg in half and drilled a hole and that's the key ring :p

Like Fizz - house key & alarm fob went on a lanyard - just ignition key on the bike, though it did have a clip so I could attach it to the aforementioned lanyard when needed as well as a rough looking old leather keyfob...

... which has been used on every bike I've ever owned.:oops:

ignition key and a small key ring.

my house keys are like a jailers.
I never carry car or bike keys with house keys for a couple of reasons, if i lose one set, i dont want to change keys for everything. Also i knew someone who got charged with drink driving for carrying his car keys whilst drunk (didnt even go to the car).

I have my bike key on my normal keys but on a removable ring so I can unhook it and only use the one key whilst on the bike. Stops the top yoke getting scratched and I don't like keys flailing about when I'm riding.

House keys etc then I attatch to a lanyard, which I also put my alarm key fob on so I doesnt get wet.



SAME..

although I do worry- the amount of keys I have on my lanyard if came off (again) and was less lucky could my keys actually become a danger to my chest area and cut in to me..

Although... is it just me, or do you get your bike key out, then get geared up with all the waterproof over suits and whatnot, then realise your house key is under about three layers of clothing and have to start all over again?

ha..

happensto me every time...!

Blimey, i really am the only one. I tried to seperate my keys once and locked myself out soo many times (As i forgot my keys) i put them back on the bike keys. I also have a full set of keys on my car keys as well.

If you have seen the rest of my bike, you will know im not that bothered about the yoke (Although its has a protector on it from new) and the wear round the barrel can be touched up with a bit of silver smoothrite :)

I have ignition, disc lock and padlock keys and the immobiliser fob. I'd been thinking about just having the ignition key on the bike and the rest in my pocket but then theres all the fannying about digging for the disc lock key and the alarm if I stop off somewhere...

The velcro idea by dizzyblonde is ace though! I'll look for some at the weekend and see what can be done...

:-k
