kill switch do you bypass your kill switch or relocalise it??? yesterday I was doing a HC and was just moving my legs around when I guess I touched the kill switch, bike went down FAST, I got ejected and the bike fell down on me. Hopefully I had my body armour but still I can barelly move my right arm today and got some road rash on my hips. |
Re: kill switch Drill a screw in it or if you want something removeable then heat up a cotter pin with a lighter or something and then push it through the switch. |
Re: kill switch guys drill a small hole going sideways thru the kill switch and put something like a safety pin thru it so it wont turn off |
Re: kill switch Bypassed mine inside the sleeve where it connects to the clipon. Never had a problem with it. IF ur gonna do highchair, then the bypass is a MUST. Lucky man u didnt hurt urself any worse. Anytime the bike loses power (especially ALL power), front of the bike with drop like a hooker over $100 bucks....=-) |
Re: kill switch Ive got a heated cotter pin driven through mine. I can pop it out if im riding twisties or whatever, and pop it in and fold the ends for stunting. Im not doing any HC shit yet (new bike, newer stuntrider) but its there. |
Re: kill switch exact same thing happened to our team mate... nastiest stack i've ever seen! on the f2, mine is drilled with a split pin through it on the f4i, the whole throttle has been rotated forwards, so the start button is on top and the kill switch is protected by the brake master |
Re: kill switch cotter pins save lives! |
Re: kill switch ya, mine is also drilled with a cotter pin through it. |
Re: kill switch hardwire it(connect both wires so it always on) or pin it. |
Re: kill switch i like the saftey pin the best |
Re: kill switch hmm...never had that problem. on hc i always keep my legs in the center and shift my butt to steer.....never hit in on any pull throughs or jumps either. ?? i like my kill switch, saves motors when you have an accident and the throttle gets stuck or it's a runaway bike. |

I've had to chase down more than a few bikes that have gone rouge when someone has messed up a stunt and it's easier to slap a kill switch on a handlebar than try to dig for a key when you are running full speed or the bike is spinning like crazy.:2cents |

Doesnt it make it hard to hit the kill switch on the bottom side....=-) Either way, guess it has its ups and down as with everything else in life...=-) |

Re: kill switch I use a spring clip through the kill switch, on a 6" cord. I only put it in for highchairs and shit where im in danger of kicking the switch, the rest of the time it stays clipped onto a throttle cable. Ive kicked the switch off twice now pulling through. Not fun. |

Re: kill switch [QUOTE=Joker;2946844]Pull in the clutch :shruggs[/QUOTE] never chased an out of control bike before huh? i'd rather not grab the clutch when i'm runnign and try to hold onto the bike. easier to just smack the kill switch and run away and watch it fall down. |
