Ignition switch for GPZ1100B1

#1 PostAuthor: JimBoUK » Mon Dec 14, 2020 5:52 pm

Hi,
I have a US import GPZ1100B1.
The ignition switch is knackered and any key will turn it.
I’ve had a search for a new switch but none seem to be like mine.
It has the steering lock pin coming out from the bottom of the lock, not the side.
Any idea where I can get one or maybe it’s possible to dismantle it and fit a new barrel ?

Those switches are not very very much in demand and can be found everywhere. :D :D :D :D :D The other type, thats; not really much like it, will not fit but is available. It may be possible to switch the barrel over from one of the other type, but i really could not say. What i can tell you is that the electrical contact side of the switch is easily accessible and easily refurbished and they work well both electrically and mechanically when cleaned up well.
