EAS2GB7361STARTING 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.
