I'm trying to get a key made for my 05 Kat 750. I have been to walmart, lowes and home depot and the blanks they all say should work do not match up. Do I have to get this done at a dealer, or does anyone know what the blank # is for the keys?

I went to Ace Hardware, had the key made, it cost 2.10 including tax and works great. Is nothing fancy, but just a backup. He made it and said that if it didn't work to bring it back and they would give me my money back, I really wasn't worried about the 2 dollars, but went home and it worked like a charm.

I had lost my key and spare within a week. Let me tell you that's something fun to deal with. To get it rekeyed, you have to get a set of security torques bits and remove the ignition tumbler, take it to a straight up locksmith. They can whip it up in a second. I had the hardest time finding the security bits and blanks. I had to call a few dealers And then found one that had a few. I should've called the locksmith before tho because he had em cheaper. To get the rekey done it was $30. The set of torques bits, $30... All in all an expensive mistake. Btw, the security bits are the ones with a hole in the center. If I remember right it's a #30.

You can purchase bike/model specific key blanks on ebay and have those copied from yours anywhere.
There are also some novelty key blanks on ebay as well if you want something different.
Like this one...
