Craig came up with a good idea and asked me if I would like to implement it.
Project Vetter Keys
The goal is to harvest as many original Vetter keys as possible and make a master Vetter keyring. From there I will duplicate the master Vetter keyring. If anybody comes to us and is missing keys for any of their Vetter bags, tailtrunk or tonneau cover, I can then send them the duplicate keyring. They can try keys to find a match for their accessory. Once located, then they can go have the key or keys copied. Once done they can send the Vetter keyring back.
What we are asking?
If you have any spare master keys that are not listed in the list below, we are asking if you would donate them to the cause. Our goal is to make a keyring that houses every Vetter key that was produced. Please understand that when you donate your keys they will not be coming back. It would be ideal if members would take a picture of their lock in place with the fairing serial number. Have their key copied, keep the copy and send the original.
Facts from Craig Vetter
Hudson, Illinois, Briggs and Stratton and maybe others supplied locks and keys. They are stamped VF-xxx. They might be fairing-luggage, which would be the same assemblies. They might be sidecar. There are no ID marks on the lock assemblies that I can see … just some names on the keys. We may find out that the various Windjammer serial ranges matched up with one of the suppliers which would make things easier. There could between 50 and 100 different keys.
Cost to use the duplicate Vetter keyring
A deposit for twice the cost of the duplicates ring (TBD) and postage. Once you have sent the ring back your deposit will be returned.
What keys do we want?
Vetter bags, tailtrunk or tonneau cover. Check the master list to make sure we don't have it already.
Where do I send keys?

Do I get anything for donating keys?
I will post the member name and what numbers they donated. Also, you get a huge thank you from myself and Craig Vetter.
