Re: Kickstand down - bike shuts off

["Jim Lundberg" <jiml@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

strange ...
I use mine exactly the opposite way around
when parking outside the pub on a Friday night
bike rolls backwards to touch the curb (almost)
I put down the side stand to kill the engine
I thought that was what it was for    ;-}

parked in the garage it always stays on the centre stand
force of habit learned from my R80
which smoked a lot on starting

Wasn't it Voltaire who said that, right before he invented the regulator
that bears his name?

Right - I would not advocate unplugging it, but I would defend to the death
your right to do so!!!
