if it was me i'd try and disconnect the key switch. The key when in the off poss grounds the ignition and it wont start, if you unplug the connector it will break the circut to ground.

Brother had this happen on his 08 m1000 and we had to disconnect the kill switch because it failed so had to use the key from then on

Are you sure the dealer said in the motor? Or the gas tank? Keep sled inside with empty tank? Gasline antifreeze is your friend....
I always carry a bottle in my sled.
