There is an article, i would assume in the archives, that goes through how to bypass the clutch safety switch.  Also the kickstand safety switch. John A7

Does anyone know if the KLR has a clutch electrical switch that can be adjusted? Mine will only start in neutral with the clutch either in or out. The manual indicates that the engine should also crank while in gear and the clutch unengaged. Thanks, Brad A9 __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

I don't think you can adjust it. I bent my clutch lever this weekend, afterwards the bike would only start in neutral. When I got home I disassembled the switch and reassembled it. I can once again start the bike in gear with the clutch disengaged. HTH Glenn A14 --- Brad Davis wrote:

It'll do it, just gotta put the ZX 9 motor in there, and get a stronger chain.....and some brakes.
