Can anybody talk me through the process of programming a newly cut key to the Ten? I lost the user manual, long story. Thanks.

FYI copied from the service manual�

Standard Key Registration

Standard key registration is required when a standard key is lost and needs to be replaced, or when the code re-registering key is re-registered after the immobiliser unit or ECU are replaced.

NOTE:
Do not start the engine with a standard key that has not been registered. If the main switch is turned �ON� with a standard key that has not been registered, the immobiliser indicator light flashes to indicate fault code �52�.

1. Check the immobiliser indicator light signals the standby mode.
2. Using the code re-registering key, turn the main switch to �ON�, then �OFF�, and then remove the key within 5 seconds.
3. Insert the first standard key to be re-registered into the main switch, then turn the key to �ON� within 5 seconds to activate the registration mode.

NOTE:
The existing standard key code is erased from the memory when the key registration mode is activated. When the key registration mode is activated, the immobiliser system indicator light flashes rapidly.

4. While the indicator light is flashing, turn the main switch to �OFF�, remove the key, and within 5 seconds, insert the second standard key to be registered into the main switch.

NOTE:
If the immobiliser system indicator light stops flashing 5 seconds after the first standard key is registered, the registration mode is deactivated. If this occurs, the second standard key cannot be registered, and steps 2 to 4 need to be repeated to register both standard keys.

5. Turn the main switch to �ON�.

NOTE:
When the indicator light goes off, the registration is complete.

6. Check the engine can be started with the two registered standard keys.

Thanks Pleiades. Just to clarify, my existing key also needs reprogramming at the same time?

AFAIK (not done it myself) yes you do need to do both keys.

It says later on in the service manual that you can "void" a key, say if you've lost one and don't want it to get into the wrong hands, by re-registering the one that's left. That would seem to confirm that the standard black keys need to be programmed in pairs - registering just one will cause the other to stop working. It would also appear that having to register in pairs prevents more than two keys ever being registered to the same bike, which also makes sense.

I would concur, both keys at the same time. I've attached the page from the manual for completeness, but it doesn't say anything more than whats been said already.
