Welcome rob! what country are you in? 

The US models don't have immobilizer unfortunately, so don't require chipped keys.

I got a US 2020 in October.  It came with two black handled keys on fobs with the dealers's logo on them.  One has a small metal tag on the ring with it, with the key code stamped on it.

So did mine. The plastic made the key so bulky I melted off the plastic and drilled a hole in the key to put it on the ring so it lays flat against the other keys on the ring now.

I don't blame you.  I tend to keep only the one key on a motorcycle fob so I don't have the problem.  Except when I had the Moto Guzzi, which had three separate keys for the ig switch, gas tank, and seat.  I was lucky the steering lock key was the same as the seat key.  Some of them came with four separate keys!

In the UK you definitely used to get a red key.

You probably downloaded a manual for a non-US market bike.  The US ones definitely do not have an immobilized therefore there is no red key.
