What happens if you hit the kill switch while riding?
If the bike is running and you hit the kill switch, it goes dead. And if the bike is moving down the road, it also goes dead and coasts to a stop. Put the kill switch back on while it’s rolling, the bike will restart (assuming you haven’t let out the clutch), and you may get a backfire.
What is the use of kill switch in bikes?
A motorcycle has a kill switch because it lets a motorcyclist turn off the motorcycle without needing to take a hand off the handlebars since the button is within reach of the thumb. This lets the motorcyclist have total control of the motorcycle up until it’s turned off. The kill switch controls the ignition.
How do you use a motorcycle kill switch?
How should you use your kill switch?
- Use the key to turn the ignition off.
- Push the kill switch then use the key to turn off the ignition.
- Put the kickstand down then use the key to turn off the ignition.
- Use the start/stop button.
How do you backfire Killswitch?
To create a backfire (an explosion) the ignition is turned off with the key (or kill switch) while the vehicle is coasting and hold the throttle open. This draws excess fuel into the cylinder and exhaust that is un-burned but in a highly explosive state.
The kill switch or emergency switch or engine shut off/cut off (switch) (even the naming is ambiguous) is a red switch located on the right handle bar of just about every modern motorcycle commercially manufactured today. It is a safety feature that can be used to cut power to the engine in the event of an emergency.
What is a Killswitch VPN?

A kill switch, also known as an emergency stop (E-stop), emergency off (EMO) and as an emergency power off (EPO), is a safety mechanism used to shut off machinery in an emergency, when it cannot be shut down in the usual manner.
Where is the Kill Switch on a motorcycle?
The kill switch is in reach of the right thumb (almost always) which makes it easy to turn off the motorcycle instead of having to take one of your hands off the bike to turn the key off. Though this is a nice button to have during emergencies, it generally wasn’t initially created for them.
Can you use the Kill Switch while the bike is stationary?
As you can see in the kill switch warning message above, it says do not operate this button while riding and you can actually use it when the bike is on a STATIONARY position but what is the proper way?
How does the Kill Switch work with the ignition switch?
The Ignition switch feeds electric to the kill switch on its way to the fuel pump relay and engine control relays. It is a series of connection. The ECU powered up the same way regardless of the switch (kill or ignition). The kill switch is really just an engine turn off switch, not a full power shut off switch.
Does the Kill Switch drain the battery when parked?
The kill switch is really just an engine turn off switch, not a full power shut off switch. That means if you leave your key in the “ON” position when parked, your lights and gauges are still on. Obviously this will drain your battery. That said, the kill switch only affects the fuel pump and engine control.
