napa has them for cars, I dont know if they have that specific one but they should be able to get it. Any engine rebuild shop would be a good place to call too.

I tried napa,lowes and all the hardware stores around here and nothing. We don't have a kaw dealer around here, babbitts have them but they take forever to ship. And shipping is 15.00 for a 2.85 part!!!!

We have a ace and a do-it-best hardware, both stores didn't have metric, only 3/32" and 1/8". 3mm is in the middle and what it takes.

I've never found any 3mm woodruff keys at any hardware store, small engine repair, boat repair, motorcycle, automotive, etc. I did however use an 1/8" one and a file. It takes a while, pretty hard metal, but it works. As far as it working for long, I wouldn't bet a high dollar motor on a cheap hardware store woodruff key as much as I'd trust Viagra from a guy in the alley. Get the Kawi one for long term use.

pretty sure if you were to ask that kawi dealer to put three woodruff keys in an envelope and send regular mail they would do it

Thanks for all the input, i bought a 1/8" key taped it to my finger and rub it on emery cloth. Took a little while but got it down to 3mm......
