KIPASS Bypass

Forgive the newb - if there is a "search forums" , I haven' t discovered it yet. - - - I want to buy a Concours 14 this week , but doing due dilligence - I need to know if the KIPASS can be over ridden , bypassed or deleted ?. If it can not be superceded , I will still get one, but only after knowing how to prevent this ridiculous timebomb of failure. So far YOUTUBE has shown everything from disconnecting the grey plug , to disassembling the front of the bike and opening the ignition switch and on and on - to hammering the ignition swich....literally.
