As far as I know, there is no noteworthy difference in the way most bikes stop either by using the kill switch or the key. The engine's ignition gets cut either way and as far as the engine is concerned that's the end of it. On practical grounds, however, there is something to be said for using the key: it's a good habit to acquire, for using the kill switch might lead to forgetting the key in/on, straight to a lost/stolen key/bike or possibly a flattened battery. Also, once used, one tends to forget the kill switch on "off", prompting a few moments of confusion when the bike is to be started again...

Is it difficult to differentiate a SPST switch from a SPDT switch?

No it is not hard to tell them apart. A Single Pole Single Throw switch will go directly from the on position to the off position breaking the circuit. This is the type of switch that is used in homes for lighting control. A Single Pole Double Throw switch will usually have a stop indent which is the off position mid way through the throw. This is the switch that is used for a transfer switch when using a stand by generator in the system. The full up (on) position is usually connected to utility power. The full down (on) position is usually connected to the stand by generator.

How to replace ignition switch on a 1974 ford bronco?

"First, insert the key into the ignition tumbler. Proceed by turning the key counter-clockwise until the key is in the "accessory" position. Using a paper clip or pick tool, depress lockout pin while turning the key counterclockwise approximately 1/8 of a turn. The tumbler should then release. Remove tumbler from ignition switch. Note the position of the tumbler as it is being removed from the ignition switch, making sure not to turn the key as it is being removed from the switch. Align the new key and tumbler in the same position. Be sure the flat edge at the end of the new tumbler matches the same position as the old tumbler. You will more than likely need to suppress the pin on the face of the tumbler as shown in video in order to match the same flat edge position. " - Copied with permission from tomsbroncoparts.com.
