|
Coming home tonight I noticed my K11RS ignored the starter switch while in gear with the clutch pulled in, so I arsume it has a switch on the clutch somewhere. Stick it in neutral and it works fine.
I'll dig the manual out in the morning and check it out. Could it just be adjustment? Wouldn't have thought it would just move on it's own! _________________ K1100RS '97

There's a switch on the clutch lever. Sometimes they are a bear to remove. I've had decent luck with needlenose pliers.
Sometimes they just get dust in them and get sticky. You might try spraying some WD40 in there. _________________ 93 LT (x2)

He's the original aussie for sure. Before he became a big name I happened to be staying in the same pub where he was playing way out west, Quilpie I think it was. We got totally hammered that night, hangover about 9 on the richter scale. He is a funny man with a skinfull.
And no it doesn't rain on the rock very often.
Pulls a tear every time this one:-

Gawddammit Gwen, now you've made me cry. Isn't this a clutch switch thread. Nowhere is safe anymore.  _________________ Scott Hespelt, '94 K11LT

There's another clutch thread here at the moment that probably deserves a cry more than this one, his problems are way worse than mine!! _________________ K1100RS '97
