cb 400f kill switch question
« on: September 01, 2008, 09:00:24 PM »
Hey everyone, im new here Just picked up a 400f that needs a bit of work,  for some reason a previous owner had cut all the wires coming from the right side switch assembly.  So my main question is what kind of kill switch does it have,  does it ground out to the handle bar or interrupt the circuit?  Will it run with the kill switch wires cut?

Thanks

Kill switch interupts the circuit on my 650, show us pictures we lurve pictures especially of newly bought basket case bikes.
I think the thing I most like about motorcycling is the speed at which my brain must process information at to avoid the numb skulls who are eating pies, playing the ukulele, applying make-up etc in the comfort of their airconditioned armchairs as they make random attempts to kill me!!!!!!!

It breaks a circuit. Connect black/white to a black and it bypasses it
