Need to eliminate stock ignition and replace with a switch!

[Tristan]

Hey Guys,

So here's the story! I'm finally back home on leave from Navy A-school and upon getting ready to ride my bike which I havent seen in a full year (mortal sin, I know), I realize that I cant find my key. How should I go about setting up a switch to bypass that damn ignition?

BTW it's a 1974 CB350F. Im pretty certain it used the same ignition as all the CB's from the 70's.

Thanks in advance!!

Short of posting on the internet how to "hotwire" a bike, these should help... really easy if you know what you are looking at. (Click on the wiring diagram for full size pic) Switch goes in Bat wire

find a full black wire in the loom. connect it to a full red.

even easier, take out the ignition lock (you lost key anyway) and cut red and black wires as far away from the plug as possible. solder them together, or use a 15amp toggle switch.

basicly the lock connects black to red.
