Need to know... (new clutch lever question)

Jetfoi · March 14th, 2016, 02:37 PM

I have switched out lever and my new lever for my clutch only has two posts for the clutch safety switch and the connector from the wire harness has three. Are there any details out there on which wire is what? I figured I can put the negative and ground together and positive separate. Feedback please!

As that link states, it's a dual-throw switch. You need the SPDT switch and all three wires to maintain stock operation.

You'll want to wire the SPST switch between the yellow/green and the black wire in the left control (ignore the green wire). However, this will require you to always pull the clutch to start it, regardless of whether or not it's in neutral.
