STARTING CIRCUIT CUT-OFF SYSTEM OPERATION

If the meter light comes on, the starter motor can only operate if at least one of the following condi-

tions is met:

• The transmission is in neutral (the neutral switch is closed).

• The clutch lever is pulled to the handlebar (the clutch switch is closed).

The starting circuit cut-off relay prevents the starter motor from operating when neither of these con-

ditions has been met. In this instance, the starting circuit cut-off relay is open so current cannot reach

the starter motor. When at least one of the above conditions has been met the starting circuit cut-off

relay is closed and the engine can be started by pressing the start switch.
