Relocating or alternative to ignition switch

Yeah Motogadget was just a step toofar financially for me, I keep thinking 'cheap build remember, cheap build'  🤣

I'm sure an electrical genius will answer my query

Laverdaroo:
More than likely, cue Bryan, Ash, Ken; Oo, sorry

Isn’t there a link on the classic octane site for a slot into the loom 4 way key barrel, I’m sure there is but you may need to list the videos and go to the links on each one to see but I’m sure there’s a link, maybe a hamazon link.

What actual model is it and where is the ignition switch now?

Hi Bryan, it's my cb550f1 with the hugely long centrally mounted ignition barrel which I'd like to move somewhere more discrete

Bryanj:
If the only difference is the extra brown wire then you should be able to use the earlier 4 wire switch but good luck finding an original Honda bracket and then you would need to weld a bracket for it to bolt to onto the frame.
The us boys used to move the early switch to between the clocks with a bracket that i may have one of somewhere but finding it is a problem.
I am just back from my sisters funeral, give me some time and i will check out the wiring diagrams for you
