Has anyone mounted a keyed ignition on their dual sported KTM 520 EXC? I am looking for ideas on which part to use, and how to wire it in, where to mount it, etc.

Thanks.

There has been a thread before on this subject.
KTM have one in the Duke parts catalogue and I've seen it on a 520EXC in Greece. The barrel linked into the light/indicator switch on the left bar.
Part number is 584.11.066.100
Don't think thats the whole unit though.

The previous thread(s) that I found was not conclusive. That's why I posted again. If you know of one that is, please point me to it. Thanks.

I don't know if your looking for a KTM part or other option? I used a keyed switch on a XR-600 that I made street legal. I bought the switch from radio shack, the type that uses a "round" key, with a slot for orientation. I spliced it inline with the hot wire for the ignition. The reason I chose this set-up is that you can have the ignition either on , or off, with the key then being removed afer which ever you select. The benefit of this is less damage to key tumbler when riding off-road, and the ability to remove key and stash it in a pocket while riding. My .02 cents
