Again, thanks for the kind words.
That was the goal in making the harness really- for anyone to just be able to forget about the whole issue. Not many activation switches have failed but every one that has was certainly an unexpected event for that particular C-14 owner. So the harness is really just a mechanical way to do something to not have to think about it ever again. I used to brush off the whole KiPass activation switch sticking issue but then again, I had a bypass on my own bike from very early on so I guess I could afford to be cavalier. The great majority of C-14s will never have any kind of failure with KiPass; adding the bypass just allows those with a little bit of concern to finally forget about it entirely and not have the thought rattling around in the back of our (collective) heads. And of course the bypass is not required to work- around the stuck switch issue, it just makes it easy and fast to do so, especially if you have to do it several times such as when on a trip or something similar.
To everyone who has commented on the quality of the harness and the components used, thank you. The goal in making these harnesses was never to make them as cheaply as possible but as well as they could be made. I have tried to make the harnesses so they were the last part on the bike to fail; I like to think that the harnesses will still be functional and sealed long after all the C-14s are no longer on the road.

I test mine once and a while. Secretly hope my Kpass will mess up so I can take advantage of this. Its been well worth the peace of mind having mine installed.
Install was easy and Brians instructions were top-notch.
