shut down

[tford69]

My dealer told me to use the fuel cut off switch whenever i shut the bike off but then i was reading that it wasnt a good idea. Any thoughts?

Key or Sidestand whilst in gear on a slope Kill switch (red switch on right hand controls) for emergency use only

Please get your Dealer to show you exactly where the ' fuel cut-off switch' is .... then you can tell all of us.

I usually kill it with the red switch and then turn the key off. Does it really matter which one?

Anyway you do it, it's simply interrupting the circuit to the ecu and the engine shuts off.

Some may say that one switch or another will cause an electrical spike and fry the ecu but I don't put too much faith in that.

I use the side stand switch. It guarantees that I won't forget to put the side stand down (again).
