Title: Clutch lever position switch
Post by Dave S. on 01/01/13 at 08:24:30

What's the best way to by-pass the clutch cut-out switch?
I prefer to keep the side-stand switch, and the neutral switch
but the clutch switch is just redundant. This is the first thing I
changed on my DRZ400 with no problems.
It looks like just jumping between the two yellow/green wires
would work, where's the best location to do this?

Quickest is right at the switch, cut the leads, twist together with a small wire nut. Pretty? Pop off the seat and tank, unwrap the left side harness from the bars, trace the switch wires down, cut, solder and heat shrink close to the main harness.

Want it reversible? Radio Shack sells miniature spade terminals, make a jumper loop and plug it into the bike side of the switch.

Thanks! I think I'll go with the wire connectors, in case I want to change
it back for some reason. My DRZ had a 2-prong connector under the
headlight shroud, I made a jumper at that point, easy.
