That switch is there for emergencies to 'kill' the engine.. So dont worry about it, NOTHING happened to ur bike!Originally posted by Prakritij View PostFew days ago, I mistakenly thumbed the engine kill switch while in third gear at around 30kmph. Please tell me if it harmed the engine in any way. I am so worried:-(.

+1 for this. Some riders dont use it at all, dont know why. Its the Engine kill switch and nothing else.Originally posted by yamahatrooper View PostContinue to do this.

I'd written to Yamaha complaining of too much of vibes and harshness on my bike. Was referred to a Service Engineer at Pacer Yamaha, Bangalore. When he was checking my bike, he took a short test ride and said that the fork is bent. Now I want to know what are the symptoms of a fork being bent..
I thought a fork bend would show itself if you take ur hands off the handle-bar and the bike pulls in either direction. My bike travels in an absolutely straight line. I have a feeling he's just trying to recover some money as he has to fix the vibes for free (Yamaha Head Office complaint na). Removal of fork bend is Rs. 1100/-

I use it everytime i'm at a signal or for short halts too. Its there so you dont have to keep using the key to start-stop the engine. Im sure it has no adverse effects at all, unless the switch is used roughly and the contact breaks or somethin.A good rider has balance, judgment, and good timing. So does a good lover!

I personally use the kill switch at red lights only, i.e. scenarios when I want to switch off the engine for a couple of minutes only. When I have to park the bike , I turn the key to off. I do this because 2 of my friends' r15's engine kill switches had developed problems and they had to fiddle around with them quite a lot to be able to start the bike. One of them is an xbhpian too. Although the engine kill switches were changed in warranty, I say when you're gonna park the bike you WILL definitely turn the key to off/lock, hence no need to bother the kill switch un0necessarily.Originally posted by Shivanshu View Post+1 for this.

Your bike doesn't have any fork bending or stem/cone issues. I can say that with guarantee coz I rode it pretty recently.Originally posted by neoakshay View PostI'd written to Yamaha complaining of too much of vibes and harshness on my bike.
