Topic: Stator neutral switch

Is this neutral switch ok to use, or is there something missing for the contact point?

Question about installation: Should the switch be closed(contacts touching) when the motorcycle is in neutral?

[bryanj]

Thats just the static part and looks ok there is rotor on the selector drum which has acopper contact on it thatouches the contact finger when in neutral making a ground path

Thanks Bryan,

With your information I cleaned up the rotor and now I see how it works.  It was solid black before I cleaned it so couldn't figure out how the connection would be made.  Now it all makes sense.

Should be a "pip" on the back that locates in a notch on the druk

[JWB]

A bit of the pip remains, hope it is enough to keep it in alignment.

Do it up carefully and check it out, i do have some nos rotors but i paid a lot for them and i am in UK and just recently postage has gone crazy

Thanks, if it doesn't work I may take you up on your offer.
