CLUTCH SWITCH ???

(1/3) > >>

Mikep328:
I have seen references to a "clutch switch" that locks out the starter unless the gear shifter is in neutral OR the clutch level is pulled in.  My '76 UK CB400 will engage the starter in gear with the clutch released.

 The owners manual for the bike does not mention a clutch switch BUT the electrical schematic in the same owners manual shows a clutch switch in the UK model.

Did a UK bike have a clutch switch or not???

My  S plate UK 400 had a clutch switch.

Nice and easy to fit, Silvers has the genuine article in stock, about £21 ish.  You really appreciate it when you stall the bike at the head of a line of traffic.

Mikep328:
Interesting!  I looked at the DSS listing; my '76 400 definitely does not have that switch so I assume in its past life the switch was removed.  Thanks!!

You will need the diode as well that's mounted near the voltage regulator.
