Tdm 900 Advice?

[LIAW]

my 2002 model doesn't have the red key for the ignition, just 2 black keys nice and simple, I had an MT03 that had a red key ignition and the ignition barrel was faulty,

to replace a 'red key' ignition barrel costs hundreds of pounds because of the computings or whatever is built into it, the older 2 black key ignition barrel can be replaced for about fifteen quid,

luckily with perseverance and singing some soft songs to my not so good MT03 ignition barrel it eventually surrendered and I was able put the sword away again
