The bike will start with the sidestand down only if the transmission is in neutral OR the clutch lever is pulled. But, if you try to release the clutch with the bike running and in gear with the sidestand down the engine should die. Jim

usually touch the wiring until necessary. Still don't understand why the sidestand switch needs to be defeated also.> I know just enough about 'lectricity to be dangerous and don't
How about getting a little air and the bounce down makes the sidestand actually come down and keeeeel the motor ? Or in a hurry to get a foot down off road and hooking the side stand and again.. keeeeeeeling the motor ? Couple ideas I suspose. Dooden> > Allan A14 >

Tried it with the sidestand up, down, clutch in, clutch out, in gear, in neutral. Seems to me that the need to do the sidestand is negated when the clutch switch is shorted. Again, I'm not recommending that anyone do it this way. If someone gets stranded because of the clutch switch, this method could possibly get them home. My KLR has been done this way for six weeks and over 2,000 miles, haven't seen any ill effects from it yet. I'll let you know if I do see effects from it. Thanks for your input on the subject. Allan A14 As an afterthought, I'd like to see someone put together a package for the KLR including the correct connectors for defeating the safety switches and accessory connectors for things like extra lighting, electric vest, heated grips, stereo, refrigerator, microwave....
Hey Steve, yes you can. Take a look at my procedure for it here: http://klr6500.tripod.com/safetyswitch.htm Mark How do I set my Laser printer to "Stun"?
