Bike dies in neutral with sidestand down


Recommended Posts

My 83 will not run with the sidestand down with the bike in neutral with clutch out. If I pull the clutch in just a little bit, it will run. It acts this way with two different CMS's and sidestand switches. When I put it in neutral, the light comes on as it is supposed to, so it appears it is getting power through the shifting mechanism.

Any suggestions?

Quick check to isolate the sidestand switch is to pull connector apart and connect all three wires together on harness side and see if problem goes away. If it does then side stand switch is defective.

One conductor is a ground and other two conductrs are signal wires, so tying all three together presents no issues.
