Any options to replace ignition switch on 2011 300?

[rgranger]

I have an old trail tech vector that I would like to mount on my 300 with flexx bars. the only mounting option covers access to the switch. I would settle for a on/off toggle? A quick look and it seems like it is just 4 wires, lights and ignition I assume?
Thanks

I mounted mine up on the handlebar clamps. I can still get to the switch.

Just a thought.



Or you could do like this:

Not an option with the flexx bars, sadly.

there is a picture at the top of their page that illustrates the issue.

I did the same thing with my Bike Bonz, tied them together with a plate, but mine mounts my damper. Nice!

It's been a while since I've seen a Flexx bar. It looks more difficult to be sure but perhaps not impossible. Just a thought

You know, I am pretty darn lucky to have found this forum and a bunch of guys always willing to help a guy out...hey, where's my wallet?

I like the idea of the key on the side of the mount? I may need to make a pigtail to get a longer cable? Anyone know if the connectors are available from GG or Smiths?

Just make a bracket for the switch that would allow the key to be inserted from the side, behind the headlight.

BTW, real bikes don't have ignition switches.

Ouch! That must have burned a bit! LOL

My Berg must be a real bike then because it has no ignition switch either. Glad I bought the right brand.
