#1 Bike still starts when turned off by key.10-31-2015, 10:02 PM
Hi guys,
My bike has had some battery dramas. I was wondering if it could be due to the key not fully turning the bike off. I turn the ignition all the way to the left and then turn the key so it faces up. Then the switch can't be turned. This is from what I understand off... I can then go and flick the starter switch to on and the efi kicks in and I can start.
Could this be causing the battery troubles? And why would the ignition switch be doing this?

Unless someone has fiddled with the wiring and it's always on. If that's the case, then, yes, there should be some constant current drainage from the battery.

I'm guessing someone has fiddled with the wiring.. Have the wiring schematic at home so will have a look and pull out the ignition and see what I can figure out.

can you pull the key out in the "off" position and still be able to start it? If so, the wiring has to be messed up...you should not be able to start a bike with no key in it!

Ok lmao figured it out. The previous owner was drinking when he handed the bike over.. He forgot which position was off... Then said all the left was... I've been doing. thinking it was off.. Turned it to middle position and it locks but is completely off.. .
And yes some bikes can start without key in. Mine is a little round key with edge coming off so you can only put in one way. If you left it in it will fall out.Laro Pro street 350 owner (DD350E-6C)
