o/w + o 
6.2 ohms

br + r/yel
.8 ohm

o + o/w
.5 ohm

w + w/bk
.9 ohm

'park'

w + w/bk + red
no contact all three together 

general consensus is the switch is toast, needs replaced.
hoped for correct steering lock that protrudes out of the bottom
but all i can find is emgo ignition switch kawasaki 40-80610 but steering lock protrudes from the side
is that the only switch available? ty

You probably only need this portion of the switch:







 

are you putting your probes on the wires of the switch or are you probing the solder points on the switch?

daveo yes that's absolutely what i need  is just that portion available anywhere?
f64 im using the solder points and back probing the connector with switch completely removed from bike
 

its in bad shape

Someone else may know of a source, but not that I know of.
It was removed from a switch listed several years ago on ebay.  There's not much available to choose from now, but that can change in a day.

Looks close to yours, only the connector is differing. De-solder and re-solder your connector or use the internal parts only.

Have a potential source looking into it, and will followup with a PM.
