Clutch/Stand Switch

Hi all just wanted to know if there's any problems bypassing the side stand and clutch switches on my 99 model drag bike?
Cheers

Yes , You'll go round a corner with it down & Die .OOps scrub that ,it's a drag bike ,Don't know really .

Bridge the sidestand
and you can bridge the clutch switch if you remove the black /yellow wire from the ecu

Thanks for the info Maj Bridged the switches and cut the wire today. All works well.

Why do you want to? Are you removing them both?

Yep its only a race bike and its 2 less things to go wrong and ruin my night

Question for the Guru's here, If I cross both terminals at the switch for the clutch lever cut out switch, this just stops me having to depress the clutch lever when starting the bike, am I doing anything to the tune of the machine or just jumped the switch?
I have a local mechanic tell me the bike woulg revert to "Just Get Home" mode and detune the box.
True or false please?


Cheers

He is pretty much on the money Max, clutch in mapping for fuel and ign is pretty basic and rpm limit lower... how much hp do you need with the clutch in ;)
thats why on a race only bike like above if you disable the clutch switch you must remove the wire to the ecu that lets it know the clutch is in , bridging the wire then only completes the starter circuit

Thanks Maj, so which wire can I cut and where is it please?

Not sure why you would want to Max,
but if you unplug the ecu connector with the black/yellow wire on it ,
with a biro push the pin lock on the edge of the connector usually within the ecu, white single rectangle , it will only move a couple of mm
then pull the black/yellow wire out of the connector and tape to insulate the bared end
then push the pin lock back in place , 2 small rectangles on the opposite side
and fit the connector back in the ecu..
This is easily reversable so it could be put back to std at any time .

Just lazy mate, sick of pulling the clutch in every time I start her.

Just make sure she is not in gear when you do. Otherwise you could have some adreanaline filled moment. I thing that's the reson behind that feature.

I think I will do it as well,one less thing to go wrong on a trip.I never needed these safety feature before on the old Katana etc.

No clutch switch? Could be a face saver for ya.

Year 11; this smart arse year-twelve turned up on his new CB650 (ho ho ho!). The girls thought he was the beez neez. While he was distracted, a mate snicked it into first. Smart arse assumed it was still in neutral when hit the starter button...... LOL

[Madmax]

Not if she's on the side stand, and no damage if she's on the center stand.
