STARTER INTERLOCK 7.5
GENERAL
The starter interlock system is designed to prevent unin-
tended start-up.
Two circuits make up the starter interlock system.
Starter Circuit
The starter circuit prevents the motorcycle from being started
unless a ground has been established at the starter relay.
This ground may come from one of two sources.
●
By placing the motorcycle in neutral and grounding
through the neutral switch.
● By disengaging the clutch and grounding through the
clutch lever switch.
Once the starter circuit is grounded and the starter button
pushed, the starter relay can be energized. The energized
relay then permits the starter motor to crank the engine.
