Hi did a bit of searching on here and couldn't find anything.

I was wondering if anyone has ever used a motorbike 4 wire key ignition on a motorised bike so it can't start unless you turn on the ignition.

If not does anyone have an idea of how this could be wired?
 
I don't know about that particular switch but it's easy to disable starting electrically, you just tie the switch to the blue and ground wires, when the switch is on it shorts out the ignition like the kill button and the bike can't start, turn the switch off and it's ready to run.

The trick is where to put the key so it can't be hot wired.

I attach mine to the CDI.

Check out this topic http://kcsbikes.com/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=661 for some more details as I replace the stock wiring from the magneto to the CDI with much better black double insulated wire as well.

A key is a deterrent, but a determent thief can simply pedal it away, just not with engine power ;-}
