[QUOTE="Fishdiver, post: 1151041, member: 86860"] The ignition switch on my Gen 1 is dying. Sometimes its fine and sometimes I have to turn the key about 2/3 of the way on for it to start. The bike was used as a commuter for years by five different owners before I bought it and the body work is beat. I would like to bypass the keyed switch with a toggle. I have read this: [URL="https://www.fjrforum.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=25185"]https://www.fjrforum.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=25185[/URL] I would prefer to rewire all 4 wires down to the main wiring harness connectors. Can I do this with a one double pole switch or should I just use two switches? Has anyone else done this as a permanent solution? This seems like a hardwire solution that solves the same problem as the Brodie harness. Am I missing something? [/QUOTE]
