kill switch to ignition 80 cb650 custom

[Droland]

i was thinking of wiring the kill switch to the ignition.
can anyone help me with how i can do it??
i'm not a wiring guru, i am trying to simplifying the wiring.

So, you want to remove the kill switch all together? I'd not recommend doing this as a kill switch is really there for a reason; not simply to inconvenience riders and complicate wiring. But it's your bike and what the hell do i know? I've only got 4 posts now.

So, if the wiring is at least similar to the stock setup, you should have a black wire and a black+white wire coming in to the kill switch. The black+white one goes to the coils, and the black one goes to the rest of the harness. so, if you just connect these together, it'll act as though the kill switch is always in the "on" position, and now the only thing controlling the ignition is the key.

Hopefully someone will correct me if i'm wrong. but i think that should do it.

The only other thing i can think to do is take a look at your wiring diagram.
it should look something like this

What you should see, at least from this one, is that the black and white dashed wire going to the coils comes from the kill switch. the blue and yellow wires come from the ignition controllers.

And at the other end of the kill switch is the black wire, which is the 12V main when everything is on and running.

Not really sure why it didn't work for you.. when you think about it, all the kill switch does in the on position is connect the black+white wire, to the black one...

maybe you've got some custom wiring also?

according to the diagram, the black wire splits and goes to the start button too after the connectors, so, i am just gonna get a little switch that i could just leave on and wire into another strat button. so, i am gonna try it in the morning sometime.
