On my 2001 it's:
  • ON - when the knob is pointing down.
  • REServe - when the knob is pointing up.
  • PRIme - when the knob is pointing to the rear of the bike.[/list:u]I don't thin it changed between years.

Interesting.  I guess it is different between the years.  I stand corrected.

Yep, it changed with the '01 model.  For the visual learners out there, I finally got the bright idea to annotate a couple of my photos:

Hey Kerry just a suggestion..?
Have you posted the pics on the FAQ section?
It would be a good idea. I think I got registered to this forum not even 3 weeks now & I saw the same question show up a few times, including one from myself.
