I just picked up one of these. http://wholesale-cycle.com/16.html
This will be my master kill switch driving two kilovacs. This was the best rocker switch that I've come across.

I think I will use a switch on the handlebars to switch the contactor. The 12v aux system will be controlled by the ignition switch (which will have to be energized first). Fuse and circuit breaker. I guess (after the discussion here) technically a disconnect is better because it will not wear out, but a circuit breaker can be easier pulled by a cable (such as cable from clutch lever). http://visforvoltage.net/files/u64/Mar_5_2007_EM.jpg Planning a small 12v 2.3 ah B&B battery for lights plus 200 watt Vicor DC-DC converter. 0-100v, 0-500 amp Don't think I'm going to bother with a separate switch to enable controller, as switching the main contactor does the job, and when the controller fries, can't count on anything.
