Just unplug the main wiring harness - which takes all the lights out of operation but it also takes the main switch out operation too.

If the blue and black wires from the magneto are connected to the coil under the tank, you should be good to go.

CAUTION: You really do need an operating kill switch. Don't run the machine without some means of turning off the ignition. (!)

S.H. can sell you a key that will work in your ignition. Part # 929437 -MAIN SWITCH KEY.
No need to hot wire.
Hope that helps.
