La Jolla is one of the best places in the county to ride and one of the trickiest places to park. Riders squeeze bikes into tight spots along Prospect Street and Coast Boulevard, leave them at the La Jolla Shores lot for a swim, or stop at the Torrey Pines Gliderport on the way up the coast. When a key goes missing in the sand or a lock jams after a day by the water, we come to the bike so you are not pushing it up a hill to meet a tow truck.

The ocean that makes La Jolla worth the ride is hard on your bike's locks. Salt spray off the Cove and Windansea gets into ignition switches, seat locks and gas caps, and corroded cylinders are a common reason keys bind or break. UC San Diego students and staff who commute by motorcycle or scooter lose keys around campus too. We replace keys, extract broken keys and repair ignitions on site, and we ask for photo ID with registration or title first.

## Local notes for La Jolla riders

- Parking around the Cove and the Village is tight on weekends, so send the exact street, lot or nearest business when you call so we can find your bike.
- Bikes that sit near the Cove, Children's Pool or Windansea take salt spray, and a key that sticks or turns rough is a warning sign worth acting on before it breaks in the ignition.
- On the UC San Diego campus, tell us the lot or parking structure name and the nearest building, since campus parking is spread out and easy to mix up.

## La Jolla motorcycle key FAQ

### I lost my only key on the beach at La Jolla Shores. Do I have to tow my bike out?

No. We come to the bike at the Shores lot or on the street and make a new key there, even if you have no key left to copy. Bring photo ID and the registration or title so we can confirm the bike is yours.

### My ignition feels gritty after months of parking near the Cove. Is that salt?

Often, yes. Salt air corrodes the parts inside ignition and seat lock cylinders, which makes keys stick, turn rough or break off. We can repair or replace the ignition and cut matching keys at the bike.

### I'm a UC San Diego student and my scooter key broke off in the lock. Can you help on campus?

Yes. We work on scooters as well as motorcycles and can extract a broken key from the ignition or seat lock, then cut a new one. Tell us the lot or structure and the nearest building, and have your ID and registration handy.

## Helpful guides

- [Adding a Spare Motorcycle Chip Key: Who Can Program It?](https://themotorcyclelocksmith.com/san-diego/guides/adding-a-spare-chip-key-who-can-program-it/): First check that your bike has a chip at all: many Japanese motorcycles sold in the US use a plain key, and a spare for those is simply cut.
- [Adventure Pannier Lock Keys: SW-Motech, Touratech and Givi](https://themotorcyclelocksmith.com/san-diego/guides/adventure-pannier-lock-keys/): Aluminum panniers from SW-Motech, Touratech and Givi use small removable lock cores sold in matched sets, so one key can run every lid latch and every rack mount.
- [Auction or Salvage Motorcycle With No Keys: What to Expect](https://themotorcyclelocksmith.com/san-diego/guides/auction-or-salvage-motorcycle-no-keys/): A motorcycle from Copart, IAA or a lien sale can get new keys once you hold paperwork that ties you to the VIN: a title or Salvage Certificate endorsed to you, or the lien sale certification packet, plus a bill of sale and your photo ID.
