Ignition switch lock

[pawl]

Hi I'm looking to change my ignition lock . Seen some on eBay from China. Just wondering if anyone has used one or where is the best place to get one from.
Thanks . Pawl.

Replacing an ignition will require you to drill the security bolts that currently secure your ignition to the top yoke.
Personally and this is just my opinion I would not buy such an item from China. I'd try to find a new Suzuki ignition (this would mean odd keys) or maybe a complete second hand key set which would be an ignition , petrol cap and seat lock.

I bought a Chinesium lock set for the SV as the ignition lock was a bit worn: I didn't fit it in the end as I learned the trick to get the original to work & gave the set away to the new owner.
It seemed OK to be fair, and was about half the price people wanted for used originals & there was no way to know they were any better than the old one. I would probably have fitted it as the bike was leaving, but maybe not if it was a keeper.
