I am currently building a customised bike using and air cooled Multistrada as a basis... I have converted it to carburettors and got rid of all the electronics, save for an Electronic ignition. its a back to basics retro sort of bike...
At the moment I am wiring it all up and want to retain the side-stand switch to prevent me riding off with it down. Not sure how to do this... the old setup meant that if I put it into gear with the side stand down, it cut out... Not sure if I can do this easily given all the electronics have gone!
So the plan is to use one of the outputs on the Electronic ignition (pit lane / start limiter restriction option ) so that if the side stand is down, the revs are limited to say 2500RPM. that would mean I could start it on the stand, but if I tried to ride off with it down, it would be limited to set revs...
I would welcome debate on this as a solution, or any other solutions you guys can think of.
here is the option in the configuration software...
