Quote from: gsmetalI could live without having to pull in the clutch every time you want to start the bike - highly annoying (any suggestions on how to do that switch disconnect??)
Try a search for "clutch switch" and you will find several threads.
Hint: It is only two wires running from the switch, to the headlight bucket. They have bullet connectors on them - remarkably with different sexes! Find them, connect them together, and viola! No more clutch switch interlock in the starting circuit. 2nd Hint: They are yellow/green.
Glad you had fun. Now you're making me want to get finished with my project!
