Correct, but your wiring harness gives you both a left, and separate right, turn signal indicators (instead of the Battery/Charging Light) ! < . . . . > Still, all V11 should start and run either with the sidestand up (in or out of gear) and with the sidestand down in neutral (with power supplied through the middle/#3 relay that is activated by the Neutral Switch.

When you think about it, on a motorcycle, turn indicators are ever more optional than with a car. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Docc; With the running changes through model years and all the different variations & sequences in the safety switches,,there are some funky unexplained anomalies in the real world. I think back to last fall when I couldn't get guzzidiag to connect with the ECU on my 2003 Lemans unless the side stand was down. It made no sense then & imho,it is completely illogical & counterintuitive,that with the side stand up,the bike would start & run fine,but guzzidiag would never connect with the ECU if the side stand was retracted. I'm glad I figured it out & solved it,but it reinforced in my mind that when it comes to all of the safety switches & relay,ECU sequences etc there are no absolute certainties across the model years. jmo fwiw ymmv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

p6x Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 I am dreaming of the days when I did not have to depress the clutch to start either my motorbike or my car today. Until the Le Mans, I had never owned a bike with having the side stand deployed cut the engine if in gear. Zero is the number of times I attempted to start my bike while in gear; including kick starter. Zero is the number of times I forgot to fold the the side stand. I know, suffice one time to mule over the: "how could I forget it". 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was conflicted about removing the auto-retract feature from my 'Sport, but it's been on the ground 4 times due to the auto-retract, and zero times from hitting the stand while moving. So off it went. Starting in gear, not so common but pretty familiar also. :/ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
