Most of us disable the side stand switch so you can do what you want. But there is a danger of dropping your bike that one time you're not actually in neutral and dump the clutch while on the stand...
hahaha thanks. I get one everytime I look at it, wonder what will happen when I get to ride it...?On my interceptor there is a wire that goes on the case for the neutral selector that comes off easy. Check that first.
SICK ASS BIKE BTW. I get raging boners for fz1's and fz6's
nope, my light doesn't come onIf it won't stay on with the kick stand down, then It doesn't sound like the neutral safety switch is working.
This is to prevent starting the bike, on the stand, in gear. it's an internal switch. And it should work with the neutral light.
Do you get a neutral light on the dash?
BINGO! It could be as simple as changing the bulb. It could also be the switch mounted into the engine that has gone bad. Most likely the latter.nope, my light doesn't come on
How would I change the bulb in my gauge? Where could I even buy such a little thing? And how do you know everything!?!?BINGO! It could be as simple as changing the bulb. It could also be the switch mounted into the engine that has gone bad. Most likely the latter.
2 Choices.
Troubleshoot the bad neutral safety switch
or
Hotwire the kickstand switch to say it's always up. And be sure you're in neutral before you dump the clutch and swing your leg over simultaneously.
