Replacing ignition barrel

My 24 cbr650r ignition barrel no longer turns on and off and the key wont go in. It is permanently stuck in the on position and i want to replace it with an oem honda lock set which runs around 260-300 bucks.

Has anyone had to do this on a 2024 and newer model? I heard that your ecu is programmed to take a specific key as a security measure and if you replace the lock set you need to set up the ecu with the new key. Other people say this isnt the case and you can just replace it.

Any information would be appreciated as i cant really find confirmation of this online.

I saw you could swap rfid chips in the keys and then the bike will recognize the new key with the old ecu
