I have the front end off the bike at the moment so I can really start customising a few things so while I was at it I wanted to get rid of the HUGE ignition switch to clear the way for some more goodies I have planned.

Open up the wiring loom and realise that I have bitten off way more than I can chew...and persist anyway!
Step 2 -

Start cutting away.

Four hours solid work for THAT!

So what I ended up with is a tiny microswitch to replace the key (on/off) and a momentary push button mounted in the spot where the ignition barrell used to be. The immobiliser/start button will be mounted on a bracket off the front of the top clamp. Not bad for someone who hates wiring. And it works. I also dont need the switch block on the right hand bar now. I just need to get a nice neat little switch block for the left and she'll be apples.
