Do you guys have any idea how much one of those keys with the remote built in costs? About $85 for a car and I'm sure it would be twice that for a bike.

Hey Dave, I had to buy one for my 1800 as I bought it used and there was no remote or extra key. Believe it or not, the remote was about $76 which surprised me as I was expecting to be brutaly violated! 
But then the reality set in............$30 to program it.
The more shocking event was after that..........the spare key for the 1800!!! You can't use anything but the Honda Goldwing blank and it was around $30 by itself!!! (It must have had GOLD in the key...well, at least it said Goldwing!!) and the Honda dealerships around the area wouldn't cut the key because they didn't have the right key cutter to do it! I had to take the blank to a locksmith to have it done. "Ka-ching" the price kept adding up!!! That was another $10.
So long story short..........never, never lose a remote or keys!!!!

None of the keys for Honda cars with the built in remote will fit the bikes. I think the remote will work, I have one at work I've been meaning to try to see if it will, if it programs the same way the cars do.
A HD98 blank will work in the locks but won't work the ignition because it won't go in far enough. I made a couple at work so I could keep one in my wallet in case I somehow locked the key in the trunk.

Smart Man Dave!!
Why?? Because I've locked my keys in my trunk twice!!! Hence why I got a spare key!

Honda program it the same way they program their cages.
When you unlock, you have to manually open something within a certain time frame or else it automatically relocks.
This is to prevent you from leaving it unlocked because you accidentally bumped the button. My wife's Odyssey relocks very quickly, less than a minute, the bike is a bit slower.
When you lock with the remote it stays locked until you unlock it with either key or remote.
As an aside, I enquired about an additional remote before we went away last year, I was quoted C$314 . The wife didn't get a remote.

The wife thinks I'm a control freak because I haven't given her a key. But for that kind of money I guess I'll keep taking her insults. I thought it was bad having to shell out $85 for a spare key for my truck, but that is just plain ridicules. Honda definately overcharges for a lot of items (aka cb & cd changer discussed elsewhere), but it's a small price (no pun intended) to pay for riding the greatest mile eater ever invented.
