Title: Engine stalling in Gear Post by ocdave on 01/27/11 at 09:36:23 Getting close to completing my Savage project. While waiting for a seat and some brakes I decided anyway for a test ride. The bike will not run in gear. Kickstand is in the up position. I went back and followed the kickstand position indicator wire (green and black/white) and checked the connection. Is there a way to bypass this circuit? This is my only guess on what could be the problem. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. |

Title: Re: Engine stalling in Gear Post by Serowbot on 01/27/11 at 09:57:18 Yes you can... Trace the kickstand wire up to under the seat, and put a jumper across the two wires at the connector... PS,... when my bike did that,... it was the clutch lever cut-out switch on the handlebar. I cleaned the contacts and it fixed it... |

Title: Re: Engine stalling in Gear Post by verslagen1 on 01/27/11 at 10:21:49 So I'm assuming you got it started, kick stand up, put it in gear and it stalls. Doesn't serge forward, just dies, more or less electrically. Once the kick stand is up, it no longer looks at the clutch safety. So assuming it's the kick stand safety sounds correct. There's a green 2 wire connector on later models under the seat, pull that and stick a paper clip in to disable it. And yeah, you could stick a volt meter leads in there to confirm it was working correctly. |

Mine did... It cut out at cruising speed... I'd check'em both... just in case... |
