Thinking ahead here for when I eventually sell the bike. I have lost one of the keys. To best sell it, should I:

Sell with one key?
Get new key cut at local key cutters?
Get new key cut via Honda?

So you feel comfortable at the moment only having one key for the bike?

Think about that for a while.

I wouldn't. Have heard it can put buyers off, hence the question.

Presumably a buyer might be concerned over who has the second key and whether they are going to turn up and ride away with the bike one day.

Its probably one if those things that won't put some people off and won't effect price in the end, but certainly might help you sell it faster if you have both.
