Is partsnmore.com the only place to get an ignition switch for my bike besides ebay?

Last I checked (been a while) Honda still had them available (75-76) but they are REALLY proud of them.

edit Not sure now. I saw yellow but didn't notice the wheels.

Hey there!!!! I wish I was there. What's the weather like? How was the flight? I got one, along with replacement horns, from partsnmore just before I read your post. That problem I was having with the ignition got a lot worse tonight. I was riding around with some friends and it would just cut off. Luckily it happened on Belmont area side streets. It's not the connection but the switch. It doesn't matter how you situate that plug, it's turning off. After playing with it it became apparent that it's the "guts" of the thing that's the problem. I needed a new one anyway as buggered up as the key hole was. The PO must have been buggering that key hole a lot with that tiny little flat thing he had for it to get that bad  :D

BTW. It was only 22.00 bucks for the ignition with 2 keys. I'm more than happy with that. The ones I saw on JCW where all for the older models. At least from the picture they were.

I bet they don't have as many Pilsners and Lagers as they do over here. I love a good ale, stout or porter. You looking forward to doing, eating or drinking anything specific while your there besides going to that fish and chips place you were talking about? Please post pics. I long to take my unworldly ass out of the US, so would love to see some pics.
