Description
The Watercraft Werks billet aluminum switch housing for Kawasaki 650 SX and X2 gives you a modern, horizontal control layout that places your buttons above the bar for improved ergonomics and visibility. Instead of relying on an aging vertical OEM housing, this design keeps the overall handlebar footprint similar to stock while offering a cleaner, performance-oriented setup. It is an excellent choice if you are updating your controls or refreshing a conversion build.
- Billet aluminum switch housing designed for Kawasaki 650 SX and X2 models.
- Replaces the original vertical style housing with a horizontal layout that places buttons above the handlebar.
- Takes up approximately the same bar space as the stock housing to keep your cockpit familiar and comfortable.
- Accepts both older (no lanyard) and newer (with lanyard) start/stop switch plates for broad compatibility.
- Allows you to transfer your existing wire assemblies and internal switches into the new housing shell.
Each kit includes a 3-piece switch housing and a set of six M5 x 0.8 x 35 mm bolts so you can clamp the housing securely in place. Internal switches are not included, allowing you to reuse current components or choose new ones as needed. If your ski is running an older switch plate, pairing this housing with an OEM switch plate button is recommended for a clean, functional setup.
- 3-piece construction makes installation around the bars easier and gives you flexibility in wire routing.
- Built-in threads for bolts eliminate the need for loose backing nuts and simplify assembly.
- Two drain holes help moisture escape and reduce the chance of water pooling inside the housing.
- Widened slot accommodates angled handlebars commonly found on customized stand up skis.
- Single wire exit hole keeps harness routing tidy and protected.
- Uses your original switches along with JS 550/750 style switch plates for consistent feel.
- Works with 440/550 conversion skis using 650 or 750 engines, providing a neat control solution for swapped hulls.
- Not designed for JS300, JS440, JS550, 550SX, 750SX(i), or 800SXR in stock configuration, although it may fit some conversions using a 650 start/stop harness.
For riders modernizing their Kawasaki 650 SX or X2, or finishing a conversion ski, this billet housing balances durability, function, and clean aesthetics. It delivers the kind of quality you want at the control center of your build.
