The TL1000S one worked well when I raced mine and crashed, probably quite cheap from a breakers and coped well on the race track. My CBR600 EX V&M bike also has the same one fitted to it and cuts the fuel pump feed when its on its side, stand it back upright and the feed is restored, so just press the start button and off you go again

So, Skids, are you saying all I need is one of them cut-out thingys and I'll be able to get going again after I crash. Blimey, that should be worth more than a tenner! :lol:

Totto,

If you need one I have a few in my spares bin so can send you one. Don't know if they're suitable but I can check the specs if you want. Let me know.

Totto 07-Feb-2006 18:11

Ant what type have you got , switch that is :D

antonye 07-Feb-2006 18:16

Not too sure but I know they're from RS.
I'll check when I get home and drop you a u2u.

Totto 07-Feb-2006 18:42

Thankyou :bouncy:

Only ones I've got are 10° so not much use on a race bike!

No Felix, what I'm saying is that when I crash it allows ME to get going again as I have perfected the art of crashing as demonstrarted at round 1 race one of the 2005 Desmo Due Championship, and the final Keevil round of the NG 2002 SoT championship where after crashing at the end of the main straight I rode the bike back to the pits after the race had finisshed.
It takes a while but if you crash often enough you soon learn the Do's and Don'ts of crashing and when to stay with the bike or part company with it.
Its something you could go out and practice but I wouldn't recommend it.
Although from what I've seen I'm sure Troy Bayliss has spent a bit of time perfecting the art as demonstrated at a very wet Silverstone one year and in his 250GP ride a while back. Wayne Gardner was another who also quite good at restarting after crashing

OUrs are exactly the same as the factory ones ,the clip on the vertical framerail on the left side and use the redundant sidestand cutout connector,2 minute job to fit and engine restarts as soon as you get the bike upright (as tested by me at cadders!)
