yes you will need the red key to reprogram a spare new key or the ECU won't recognize it when you put it in the ignition barrel, the bike won't start even if the key is cut to the profile of the old key

cheers Fran... whats involved in getting the new keys chipped,, how does that work.. ?? will yamaha need to do it ?:?..cheers

If you get a new key from the dealer you can register it with the ECU yourself (as long as you have the master key). How to do it is all in the service manual.
