Side Stand Switch

[darrsi]

If it cuts out and leaves you stranded anywhere disconnect the switch from the loom and bridge the connector with a bit of wire and you'll be on your way

Yeah, i found a YouTube video on how to basically hotwire it, by either bridging the connector like you say, or even cutting the wire and joining it, which is the same thing. I also read on an old post from years back to just remove the switch and tie it somewhere safe away from the stand, but if i could do that then i'd just put the other one back on.


I'll stare at it for a bit longer, and if i come up with something imaginative i'll let you know, otherwise it'll have to go down to the mechanic.  :\


Judging by the hole size in the new switch, they are M5 screws, and i've managed to find some stainless cap head screws at work in slightly different lengths to have on hand if i do ever manage to remove it.
