The Genll's need programming to match the ECU because of the imobleizer at the key switch.

Yeah ,need a blank with a chip in it Then program the key to the ECU . I Reckon I've seen a post on here somewhere of how to do it .This is what happens when you flip the Missus the Bird .

Wasn,t it on here somewhere that you can use a blank key as long as the key with the chip is within so many metres of the bike.

Hi Seabreeze,
I've had keys reprogrammed for Suzukis fitted with immobilisers. There's ways and means. Theres a couple of reputable chaps on this forum who can help if you need another key programmed. Just be prepared to provide your VIN and proof of ownership...........

Pashnit yours is easy , no immobiliser :)
I still have a complete key, immobiliser, ecu combo here if anyone looses all there keys , or buys an auction bike without key
The chip has to be very near the immobiliser to work,guys using the busa motor for kit cars etc usually tape it to the back of the immobiliser .
The chip is in the key under the hayabusa logo, have not tried it but it may be able to swap into another blank key ???

If you still have the other key, any Suzuki dealer can get you a key with transponder at a cost of about $90 then cut and program it to your ECU for another $80. (up to 4 keys can be programmed into an ECU). If you lost both keys, you are f&5cked as you will need the new ECU and the ignition switch and these are much more expensive. The blanks on E-bay have no transponders and will only work while the original key is in close proximity to the bike (like in your pocket). Not sure of the range but heard of 4 feet mentioned somwhere.
There are some rumours circulating that Suzuki keeps a copy for every bike produced but my dealer was not aware of it so it could be just wishful thinking.

Annadale Locksmiths specialize in Suzuki GSX keys with immobilisers, was quoted $145. Still have to go and get it in case I lose the last key.

Maj, this might be a dumb response but the AU models do have the chip, and the US models don't?

Tim,
I believe that is correct.
No chips in US bikes from what I have read...

Your bikes have a 100 ohm resistor circuit in the key switch, stops a "hotwire" theft as the bike will not start without recognising that resistor, our bikes had similar untill gen 2 when Europe, Africa and Aust/NZ had immobilisers fitted std
the immobiliser is a matched set of chip, transponder and ecu recognition .

Providing you have the harness, the program and the knowledge. Still more expensive than getting second key. I like it "immobilized" when I am not on it
