These are Ironheads you can start them with a 3' piece of wire no matter which ignition switch you use.

Now that you found it, go make a couple of spares. I had my '77's key copied at a locksmith. He had the blank in stock. Cost me about 2 bucks.

Eh I got a key to keep honest folks honest, all a thief has to do is unscrew one bolt and wire the two power wires together and drive my scoot off. ( I got the dash and tanks from a Low rider.)
