Key Placement

[Longview]

I've always liked the look of Bar Pads, But with the key in the way i can't really get one. Can i buy a 03+ Hood and switch it over? Are the wires long enough?

I know the Key doesn't really help, when two Teenagers can carry it. But i mostly have it so My buddy's don't take it for a joy ride when I'm taking a leak, and for that little peace of mind.

So can it be done?

I saw a relocator plate that Duncan racing made for the Banshee. Mounted the key under the seat behind the tank. It looked pretty cool. I wonder if you could do that?

that's just a fancy dancy bling part. i don't normall use the kill switch though, i always cut the key off first. whatever lol

That's actually cool, I'll go Google that. Is the space in between those bolts the same on Blasters too?

Couldn't find it in the Banshee section

You got a key?

At 300 lbs this baby cannot be trusted out of your sight.

Any snot nosed punk with a pick up truck or wire cutter can steal it.
A strong lock on the sprocket and cable it to a tree if you gotta leave it.

Mine is "Key delete option", but I liked the under seat location.
Even better is a more discrete location where you have easy access yet folks watching don't notice you doing something weird.

Yes there is enough wire to reach, I'm using 88-02 wiring on my 05 blasty and had no problems!

Oh and FYI- 2002 wire harness have the wiring for brake lights and also use the newer style connector03+ (white square plug) for the lights/run switch , as opposed to the red 3 wire connector on the 88-01 models!
