    Question Replace inition barrel with switch on GSXR600 K7. How to?

    As the title suggests I want to get rid of the ignition barrel and have a simple switch in place on my race bike (GSX-R600 K7). I still want to retain the kill switch though.
    Can any of you highly knowledgable folk out there tell be exactly how to do this please.
    Your help is appreciated

    Pm OZZY on here dude, am sure he will know

    I do NOT think it can be done to our model suzuki;s as the ECU comes coded with a chip in the Key

    It can be done........ even with chipped keys........ A local auto sparky should be able to suss it.
    The older ones just had a 100ohm/12v/5w resistor in the barrel......... just needed to replace that in the relevent circuit (earth from memory)
    Then just use the kill switch as an on/off.
    Still best to talk to a an auto sparky!

    I did it on mine, can't remember now but if you have a NZ new one with immobiliser it is fractionally more difficult but still pretty straight forward. Use google and gixxer.com to find instructions, there are plenty out there.
