Topic: Tell me about your aftermarket ignition switch problems

[Jerry Rxman Griffin aka MuthaF'er]

I've been researching Honda brand switches for my 75 750F. My part number would be 35100-377-007. UNAVAILABLE. Seems 35100-422-007 is available and appears it might be interchangeable. Good and bad. The set including the seat lock is not available. I want to avoid 2 different keys!

Please tell me your specific problem/beef you have with aftermarket ignition switches. I've seen many complaints such as "junk-do not use". I would surmise it is either &/or 2 things: The actual lock and steering lock mechanism -OR- the plastic connector/base. So whats your problem??

thats a good question and im posting so i can be kept in the loop... would like to get my hands on all three key locks and matching

It was the switch base for me Jerry, just didn't fit correctly.

All I needed was the ign switch though as I modified a VF750 seat/tail on that bike and the ignition key fit the seat lock so had a locksmith make that key work the lock.

Not much help huh?

I hear the same but have never had a problem UNLESS the loom is too tight and pull on the switch----which isnt really a switch fault.

according to motogrid the lock set for the cbx is 35010-422-020 and costs about $160 whilst the contact base part on its own is 35101-422-007 and cost about $35

hope that helps
