Use an on/off toggle switch to replace the key ignition.

Do you just wire the switch to starter wire? What do you do with the keyswitch plug? Wouldnt you need a keyswitch to shut atv off

All the key switch does is supply 12 volts to the starter button, ignition coil, and accessories (lights). Hence so many wires. They can be spliced together to the output of the toggle switch. i.e. 12 volt power in to one side of toggle the other wired accessories on the output. So when you power on the toggle you can use the lights, starter button now cranks the starter, and there is power in to the ignition. When you flip it off its like turning the key off basically kills the bike.

So if you killed the switch to turn on the starter then it would kill your spark

Yeah but if you have 3 pole ignition button or switch. Ground, 12v power, and 12v output and you wire everything to output you would be running the starter the whole time other than to just start the quad
