Its for the clutch lever switch stops you starting in gear.To start you have to pull in the clutch lever or go into neutral

Hi Billy,

Check your clutch lever, it should have (for a K6) a 7/8mm machined hole level with the clutch cable to accommodate a pressure switch.
The early K's wiring had a light green/red cable only, neutral switch & neutral light circuit.
The later K's had a dark green/red cable added for the clutch switch/starter solenoid/(-)diode.
The light green/red cable circuit will be connected to the (+) side of the diode.

Billy,
For the diode you can not get that wrong the plastic plug dictates which way round the diode goes.On mine because I do not like wire cable tied to the bars I bypassed the clutch switch.It was a safety feature installed by Honda when I get on any bike my instinct is always start with the clutch pulled in wether electric or kick as with the 750 you can kick it with the clutch in.Later they also included the side stand switch but that was on new models for new bikers.
Does that make sense to you?
Cheers
Bitsa
