Default Ignition switch--Attack Clamps??

hey guys, I am installing some attack clamps on a s1000rr. I was thinking the easiest way to get to the track on sunday...would be to drill out the stock ignition switch and zip tie it on the bike. The attack clamps don't have a spot for it. But, BMW uses these one-way bolts and they are SUPER hard, so drilling them is proving difficult.

Anyone have a suggestion on either removing that ignition (key) switch or does anyone know how to wire up a on/off switch??

Thanks in advance

I had to do the same when I switched out my triple tree. lucky I seldom use my large drill bits. I had one that was brand new about 3/4 the size of the one way bolt head ( slow and firm pressure it drilled out actually easy) I burned out 5 smaller bits trying to do the old expanding hole trick

Yeah, I called KWS ...I remember Luis saying they were setting up the one bike with clamps. Mike helped me out....got it done.

Thanks guys. I may start a thread here pretty soon about this bike build. Building one bad ass S1000RR. Im supposed to be doing a Wera Endurance race with Luis on his bike to.
