since I am getting rid of the headlights, I won't need the big ol bulky headlight switch anymore. Is there any way I can remove it and place a push button starter switch somewhere?

i still say headlight covers would do, but ive seen guys take the whole thing off then put on a tether for a kill switch and use a button kill switch off a dirtbike for a starter. it'll take some work though

i have a pro-design kill switch installed. I was jus wonderin bout installin a push-button starter along w/ the regular key switch. If I remove the headlight & starter switch on the bars, where do I connect the push button?

I am using a RM kill button for a starter, and a Gunnar teather for a kill. What I did, was open up that black box, Take the two wires that are attached to the starter button and snip the off, than Splice them and attach them to the kill button, there is your new starter;) Now for the kill I believe there are two wires on the back of that red switch that I attached to my gunnar, but I'm not 100% sure on that. As far as the lighting wires go, I snipped all of them. and the two wires for the clutch, I tied them togeather, so now I can start in gear without pulling in the clutch:devil:
