Last year when I went down in the Dragon my bike was still running and gas going everywhere. Im heading up North this weekend, and intend to Drag race at a track I ran a pro gas bike at for 7 yrs. I realized to ride my bike I had to have the kill switch or what they call a "Dead Mans" switch on the bike so today I put one on. Personally I think its a great extra safety item..any thoughts...
WHO HAS A "Dead Man's Switch" ?

- Start date
I dunno, I figure that's what the tip over switch is for. I cannot really think of any other use for it out on the street.
But for the track I suppose it's an extra margin and if modifications have removed the factory Tip-over, then it makes sense.

last year, NHRA changed rules for bikes, efi bikes with oem tip-over switches don't require tethered kill switches anymore. not sure what kind of wreck you had, but when I wrecked mine, she died..... in more ways than one.
If I'm already not on the bike.. (or god forbid..actually dead) i'm not going to be overly concerned with where it's going next...
Obviously I hope it's going somewhere where there are no innocent bystanders and such.. but .. I'm sure i'll have more to worry about if the need ever arises.
