Jiffy Stand Switch: International Models
Some international models have a jiffy stand interlock switch.
The motorcycle will start and run with the jiffy stand down while the transmission is in neutral. If the jiffy stand is down and the transmission in gear, engaging the clutch stalls the motorcycle. Raising the jiffy stand or putting the transmission in neutral will permit the engine to run.
While the motorcycle is in motion at speeds greater than 15 km/h (9 mph), lowering the jiffy stand will not stop the engine.
