New key won't work in ignition

When I bought my bike a little over a year ago, I gave my wife the spare key and said, "Put this somewhere so you'll know where it is when I call and tell you that I lost my bike key." She forgot where she put the spare key (and she's currently out of the country, so she can't help me look for it).

Out of desperation, I called dealer and asked them to make me two keys. I picked them up on the way home from work. Put the key in the ignition and it refuses to turn either direction (I had left the forks unlocked the last time I had the key). The new key works in the helmet lock and the gas tank without sticking. Please tell me I didn't waste $20 on keys that won't work in my ignition. I didn't think Honda sold bikes in the US with H.I.S.S.

Tried graphite lube in the lock with no luck. Angry

Any suggestions?

when new, i have hard time insert the key to its locks and have to giggle the key to make it do something. You might want to reinsert the key and have a feel to turn it to ON position.

Honda gave me 2 keys with serial number and told me to keep the number so they can make the key for it, I dont know if VIN have anything to do with the key
