Vader - installing short clutch
So I purchased this short clutch off the internet and I think it is like the RSC clutch.
I am noticing though that ourclutch has a wire connected to a little switch inside the clutch. Does anybody know what that switch is for? I noticed that when MAXIPADMOTO swapped his out with an RSC clutch lever, it also was missing the wire so he got rid of it. |

you can take a male spade and see if that will bypass it those or connect so you can start the bike while in gear i am going to mess with mine tonight i can post what i did unless you get figured out before then.

You started it without the clutch in Neutral. If your in gear, You must depress the clutch, which closes the switch to allow the bike to start.

Here is where I got it in case anybody is interested:
https://www.wish.com/search/clutch%2...50560bfb67bae4 be aware, it does remove your left mirror. I have purchased a replacement set. Also, noticed I definitely will need to oil the joint. |

So installed the clutch and it works great. I left the contacts unconnected so that the bike would only start in neutral.
I did have to play around with the adjustment knob and the screw, but it makes a big difference and I highly recommend it. I also bought this to re-install the side mirror https://www.wish.com/c/577497abdfab657851de1754 |
