1971 Honda CB175K1 · Electrical Buying guide
A switch connector and a charging unit’s battery requirement are separate checks. Confirm both at the motorcycle so an otherwise suitable-looking part does not create another mismatch in the electrical system.

The ignition switch uses a round connector with six holes and four wires. Count the occupied wires as well as identifying the housing shape. Previous wiring repairs or a replacement harness can change what fits, so the motorcycle’s age is not a substitute for inspecting the actual connection.
The standard Hot Shot unit is for lead-acid batteries and excludes lithium-ion use. The lithium version excludes standard lead-acid batteries and specifies 14 V ±0.2. Check that requirement with the battery maker before choosing; similar packaging does not make these two units interchangeable.
No. The lithium-ion version is explicitly excluded for standard lead-acid batteries. Choose the charging unit by the battery’s documented requirements and compare the fitted electrical connections before ordering.
No. This switch is described as a six-hole, four-wire round-plug type. Match both the connector housing and the occupied connections rather than counting holes as though each one carries a wire.
Inspect the replacement loom’s connector and circuit information directly. The round switch specification and battery-specific charging requirements remain useful checks, but original-model assumptions cannot establish how a later harness has been wired.
