Yes, again.. Last night I was tired and hot. Just rode the 2007 KLR in the drive, hopped off and turned the damn key too far and ran in the house for the rest of the night. Yep, the dreaded drained battery in the morning because of it. My bike was laughing at me. Haaaaaa,haaaaaa haa! You turned the key too far! Haaaaa haaaaa haa!
So who in this group has clipped or disconnected this stupid awesome wonderful feature? Please, for the love of Thor and Odin, can someone tell me how to get this feature off my KLR?
I have already disconnected the clutch and kickstand feature back in 2008, but this feature lingers, like a door ding on a new car. If I have to disassemble the entire bike, I'll do it, cause I swear, it's the last time.
Frustrated and upset at myself (ready with wire cutters, electrical tape, soldering iron, solder),
KLR Bugeater <><><><><><> <><><><><><> Bugeater, I haven't done it but looking at a wiring diagram and the inner workings of the ignition switch for a Gen I (1987-2007) KLR650 suggest this might take care of your needs. At the connector on the main wiring harness to the ignition switch (located below the instrument cluster) remove the red and the red/white wire from the connector. Connect them to each other and leave the ignition switch side of the connector alone. What happens is when the key is in the on position the red and red/white wires are connected. The red gets power from the headlight feed which is only powered when the key is turned on. The red/white wire powers the tail and license plate lights. So connecting them to each other by passes the ignition switch for that feature and moves it to the headlight power. All you are doing is taking the ignition switch out of the circuit. When the key is in the park position the inner workings of the ignition switch connects the white wire (always hot from the main fuse) with the red/white wire (powers the tail and license plate lights). So when you remove the red and red/white wire from the switch it removes the park position rear lights. The city lights leads (black/yellow and brown/white) at the front of the bike are also disabled in the park position and only get power when the tail and license plate lights receive power (key on position). Let the list know if this works for you. Best,
