I may shoot myself in the foot from time to time, but I wanted fewer wires in the harness and less clutter around the frame.

Unless you think that starting with the kickstand down is just fine . . .

Have yet to fine a need to disable the side stand switch. In netrual the bike starts fine with the side stand down. Haven't had a failure yet, "knock on wood". The PO kept the bike pretty clean.

I do find the clutch switch annoying. If the bike is in neutral, I feel I shouldn't have to pullin the clutch lever. Honda been doing that for years.
Maybe that's a winter project, get out the SuZuK FSM, such woonderful wintertime reading.

So what does the manual safety on the left side do that the backstrap safety does not? I have a 1911 as well, and never use the manual safety. Also really like my Ruger Super Blackhawk single-action 44 mag, the safety is between your ears.

You don't put your finger on the trigger unless you intend to unleash fire.

Works for both guns and motorcycles Grin

Yes sir, I like the way you think. Wink
