Just an update, my ‘spare’/ other key has been fine, haven’t gone back to trying the original key.
Yes, this was inserted all the way, steering already unlocked, don’t use the steering lock anyway.
It took about 5 minutes, twice, to get the key to turn, so yes, it was in fully. During those 5 minutes I tried everything I could, including the forks centered, key all the way in, etc.
I don’t think my bike or where my key has been is enough to wear the key out. I guess as keys get more detailed, anything is possible. I’ve had 4 times older vehicles where the original keys were fine.
Right now I’m gonna leave it in the freaky event category & use my other key.
