El Cajon is East County's motorcycle hub. Motoworld and Indian Motorcycle of El Cajon sit side by side on North Magnolia Avenue, Vey's Powersports is a few blocks away, and El Cajon Harley-Davidson has been in town for decades. Riders park at Parkway Plaza, Grossmont College, the El Cajon Transit Center, Gillespie Field and along Main Street downtown. If your key is lost or broken anywhere in the valley, we come to the bike.

El Cajon is also the gateway to the best mountain riding in the county. I-8 and Old Highway 80 climb toward Alpine, Dehesa Road and Harbison Canyon wind east past Sycuan, and the routes to Julian and Cuyamaca start here. Valley summers run hot, and being stuck in a sunny lot in August is no fun. We replace lost keys, program transponder keys, repair ignitions and pull broken keys at your bike after checking ID and registration or title.

Local notes for El Cajon riders

  • Valley summers get very hot, so if you are stuck in an open lot at Parkway Plaza or Gillespie Field, wait in nearby shade and send us the exact spot.
  • Heading to the mountains? Make a spare key before you go, because cell coverage gets thin past Alpine and a lost key up there is a much bigger problem.
  • Gillespie Field's business parks have many similar-looking lots, so give us the business name or suite number closest to your bike.

Riding roads near El Cajon

  • Dehesa Road and Harbison Canyon Road: Twisty two-lanes east of town past Sycuan toward Alpine, with blind corners and frequent cyclists.

El Cajon motorcycle key FAQ

Can't I just have one of the dealers on Magnolia make me a new key?

You can, but the bike usually has to get to the dealer's service department first, which means a tow if you have no working key. We make keys and program transponders at the bike, wherever it is in El Cajon. Bring ID and registration or title.

My key turns but the bike won't start. Is that a key problem?

It can be. On bikes with a transponder immobilizer, a damaged or unrecognized key chip can keep the engine from starting even though the key turns. We can test the key and program a new one at the bike for many makes, and if the problem is something other than the key, we will tell you.

I lost the key to the helmet lock on my bike. Can you fix that?

Yes. We repair and replace helmet locks, and where the design allows, we can match the new lock to your ignition key. The same goes for seat, gas cap and saddlebag locks.
