   Was sorting out the wiring and switches on the Cafe' project today and was debating the Kill button, can't remember in 34+ yrs of riding when I actually used it in a panic. I have decided to omit it on this bike, throttle return cable and ign. switch should be enough. They should make it a mandatory viewing of this vid. upon new rider purchases.. it would be a start

If your going to put a switch in. (And I know that you just said you weren't) make it a Button Like this.



This one an aftermarket for a Honda CRF.

that bike was ugly.   people should learn on a dirtbike.  I think it would have been scary to learn on the road for the first time.  Maybe I'm wrong, I'll never know.
