DescriptionThe whole story▼
The JP KS YA023 swaps the R6's lock barrel for a machined switch, which is the point at which a motorcycle stops being something you can park in a street.

The American Bikes
US-specification R6s carry a different ignition circuit, which is why the catalogue lists a separate number for them.
What Comes Off
The ignition barrel, its bracket and the key that goes with it. On a machine that never leaves a circuit none of the three does anything useful.
Where the Weight Sits
High and forward, above the steering head. Mass in that position works against the rider on every direction change, which is why the figure is worth more than it looks.
Two Minutes to Understand
There is one button and one function. Nobody has ever needed instructions for this part beyond knowing which way is on.
What Plugs Into What
The motorcycle's own ignition connector goes into the new body unchanged. No wire is stripped, joined or extended anywhere.
What Arrives
The switch assembly for one motorcycle. Fasteners where the model needs them, and nothing else to fit or wire.
A Small Part, Fully Made
Machined body, sealed switch, model-specific plate and the correct connector. The price reflects four decisions rather than one.
What Happens Electrically
The button opens and closes the same circuit the key did. The engine controller sees no difference and nothing is simulated.
What a Seized Barrel Looks Like
A key that needs persuading in the cold and eventually will not turn at all. It is a winter failure and it happens to machines that stand.
Regulations and Scrutineering
Championships set their own rules about how an engine must be stoppable and where the control sits. A sealed button in the standard yoke position satisfies most of them, but the rulebook is the only authority worth consulting and it is worth reading before ordering.
