Question Ignition switch

Hi, I have an '88 Softail. The ignition switch goes bad every year or so. Can I just put in a big toggle switch somewhere to replace it? 2 prongs are hot all the time. When I turn it to "on" and lights, they are all hot. So I thought I could do away with it and hide a toggle somewhere to use instead. I got the idea because I saw a rat bike at Rolling Thunder using a house light switch. Thanks for any help.
