Can't find an auto electrician who'll touch the ninja so can anyone suggest a place to get an ignition barrel reasonably priced.

As a mod you should be setting a better example, not derailing

£186.58 for all 3 [ignition, tank and seat lock] which isn't too bad imho.
have found a patent ignition barrel for £50 but seemingly the wires can be a bit dodgy and they sometimes don't fit.

Thats cheap, if they were Honda bits you'd be looking at £300+
I had to buy an ignition barrel for my blackbird it was £147.

may seem silly, but....
scout around on the web, I have seen some one who posted a very good guide to making a keypad lock to replace the ignition..... it still had a key, but used just about any key/barrell - looked fairly nifty, and I seem to remember that it cost about 50 quid all in - look good as well

Myrkk, you've probably already thought of this - but if you a lock and keys from ebay, don't have them sent to your home address.
