If you might want to restore the switch in the future, that would be the best way.

Good luck,
Jim

Follow the wires in the harness to the safety switch and run them up under your seat someplace to toggle switch you can use as anti theft device

oops almost forgot the picture! :woohoo:

Just keep in mind that if you bypass the switch, and you attempt to start the bike while in gear and do not pull the clutch handle in - the bike will jump forward.
