Ignition switch

[Jwcr500]

Hello everyone I’m new to the site and the street bikes
So I purchased a Saxon with a s&s 96cc with a baker 6 speed transmission
The guy before me put a key ignition switch in the coil cover and I have replaced it 3 times in like 5 or 6 rides. I think the vibration from the motor is killing the tumblers in the switch up. So is there a better switch that can withstand the motor vibration?.
Or I can leave the switch in as a dummy switch and install a toggle switch somewhere on the frame,but I can’t see where to install a new toggle. Any good ideas are welcome.
thanks all

Does ur coil cover has any fiberglass washers between it and the mount???...need something between them that the bolts can go thru and stop alot of vibration when it bolted up

I had a toggle switch on my 03. Then I hooked the key up to the horn. So if someone turned the key on, the horn blew
