Its not much fun getting to the ignition switch/barrel on the GM900. You need to disconnec the gear linkage then take out the centre console to get to the ignition switch/barrel assembly.

No, its not that bad a job. The centre console as to come out (easy) then you have to undo the gearbox linkage (easy) then unbolt the gear lever assmebly and pull the whole assembly backwards until the shifter rod comes out of the engine bay (easy). Fitting is of course the reverse of removal but you have to align the gear shift mechanism which is not so easy
