Definately din't need the original key to close it. You can shut it with any key or even a large flat headed screwdriver or anything that will fit in that hex.Luckydave wrote:You can only close it with the unique to your bike key,don’t close it and you won’t have a problem opening it

Re: Dont use keyhole shutter
I don't know about the other models as I haven't looked, but the Maxsym has one. I don't bother with it as it's too fiddly and I have an immobiliser fitted. Secure enough for me with a good padlock and chain. I didn't bother with it on either of my Burgmans either for the same reasons.Meldrew wrote:What's complicated? From what I remember from my Burgman years, the keyhole shutter is closed and opened with that Allen key thing on the ignition key, it's just something else you use until the novelty wears off.
Haven't SYM also got the keyhole shutter on some of their models.
