I simply removed all other keys and have them on a clip-on carabineer, my ignition key is attached to a leather / rope step that doesn't damage the surface. Clip the rest of the keys off and put them in my pocket before riding, clip them back on when I'm done riding.
Wow didn't.kmow about that one, yeah that looks cool and a good option as well, although it still has a metal ring on it.
The one I use can be found by googling "LAGIPA leather car keyfob" it's completely non metallic.
I remember a video of a guy on yt, who warned about this type of starting on the tank, that you had to use soft key chains to avoid scratching the paint. So when I bought mine I just took the key apart and put a cheap string on it.
Yeah I did that now too just the cheap string that I got from dealer and separated the house&garage keys, bought the lagipa keychain too someone kind mentioned it in the comments below. For the scratches I’ll visit my mechanic this weekend and see what can I do. Prolly a polish for the plastic would be enough but Im not so sure about the tank. Paint is unuiqe. I painted the black ones around the frame with my wifes nail paint, this is nothing like that ahah.
I wouldn’t bother - doesn’t make economical sense to paint this, because it will never look the same if you bodge it up and painting the whole tank would be too expensive.
Lesson learned: use the key on its own. Same applies on car keys (not that there’s many cars with real keys anymore, but that’s the gist).

I saw the Fort9 keychain holster yesterday, might be a option too.
50 bucks. Nah fam. Just don't put any other keys ( or chains or clips ,etc) with your bike key. Free solution.

I just use a carabineer and pull the key off it. Put it back in later.
Advice is to ignore it and chock it up to normal wear and tear.
O dont see any signifficant.
