Anyone relocate their ignition switch to somewhere else on the bike? Where to? Got any pics?
I am trying to get my crossroads bars to sit a little higher but with my cut down windscreen the gauges will be too high. I can lower the gauges a little but then my ignition switch hits the top clamp.(Top clamp has been altered too).

I made this bracket, then a few months later realized that this is roughly where the S1s have the switch located : p So I bought a switch bracket from an S1, and it looks sweet there IMO. No pic, but I could get one tonight if you want me too...

Thanks guys.
Andy- I have something worked it in my head where I can mount the switch behind the flyscreen and not jack with the wiring. I think I can make that bracket work. Do you have the part #?

You don't have to mess with the wiring- it runs from that location, so you just re-route it a bit.

Either way, no part number, sorry. I bought it used on the 'bay. I just searched and did not see any current or recently ended, but just search for "s1 ignition".

I'll have to grab a pic fror you- the best part in my mind is that the S1 has a provision on the bracket for the choke cable...which became a perfect spot to reroute the idle adjust cable to for easy access!
