    Let me come to the technical stuff about electrical connections, as per service manual KTM key lock switch has 3 wires coming out of it Brown(for CDI/BCU/ECU), White(from Battery to other electicals), Black(Ground). When key is ON position. White connected to all electrical and Brown is connected to White further connected to CDI together, hence a closed circuit and Black is open circuit. When the key is OFF position Brown wire grounded now touching the Black (not the White when it was ON) hence CDI won't receive any power and White wire is also cut off from the other electricals hence it wont draw any power. Hence battery is also cut off. Now coming to the kill switch, it is in parallel circuit with your ignition key, so if you use kill switch to cut off the engine, only the Brown and White wire is disconnected killing the power to CDI and now Brown will be now connected to Black. But the White is still connected to other electricals. Hence bike won't start even the key is in ON (even though Brown and White are connected in ignition, but since Brown is grounded to Black in kill switch). So long story short conclusion is kill is doing exactly same to the bike what key does in OFF to the engine, only that battery is not cut off from the kill switch, this job will be down by key. If you are into DIY like me, you can also connect the White wire from ignition to kill switch replicating the key OFF with kill switch. Thanks

    According to me kill switch is to be used in case of heavy tragic stop and go condition to save the ignition switch from wear and tear. Ignition switch has carbon particle which tends to wear out in continuous use and thereafter you have to change the entire set including the key itself, what actually happened in my Thunderbird and I have to carry an extra key.

But some suggestions gave by my friend about kill switch are same you said But i have a question that, in rc 390 even radiator fans keep working if bike is rode for more distance and tempreture is high and that too consume your battery If you just turn off your engine and turn on the kill switch. So do we have to turn off the ignition also or kill switch is ok for instance

    Big thing small!! Ignition switch cutsoff power supply to all the electrical systems hence no battery discharge. Kill switch cutsoff power supply to only to the ignition system and starter system so your bike won't start. But it indeed keeps power on in all other electrical system so there is unwanted battery current discharge and your battery goes low! Vikas sir has always been teaching all us technical aspects of bikes!! Great job sir!! Follow my channel on KZread to know stuff regarding bikes and cars!!

    1:52 vikas, you were partially wrong with the working of CDI unit. Battery won't send 12v power to the CDI unit. The magneto coil unit sends power to the CDI unit. So that is reason, that you can ride carburetor motorcycles even without battery. Battery has nothing to do with the CDI unit. And the rest of things you have said are completely correct. Better to study about CDI unit. Anyway thanks for the informative video . . . Have a good day . . .

    Actually the rr unit have no connection to cdi . rr unit controls amount of current flow to various electrical parts like headlight nd all. cdi gets its power from source coil nd signal pulse from pulsar coil on the coil stator plate . correct me if i'm wrong.

  • @Mechanicgrapher

    @Mechanicgrapher

    6 жыл бұрын

    Yes. You were absolutely correct. Now let me tell you a quick explanation about the electrical system. When you crank the engine, magneto coil tends to rotate. So it generates AC power. It is then divided into two branches. One goes to the RR (RECTIFIER/REGULATOR) unit, which takes care of all the electrical systems such as lights, fuel pump, horns etc and another goes to the CDI unit. So as per you said, CDI gets its source from magneto coil and signal pulse from the pulsar coil on the coil stator plate. So, In a CDI system, a charging circuit charges a high voltage capacitor, and at the instant of ignition the system stops charging the capacitor, allowing the capacitor to discharge its output to the ignition coil before reaching the spark plug.

    Nopes it won't.. As the gear wouldn't actually change on the inside unless the levers and wheels inside are rotating.. However having said this it's not a good practice and should be avoided if possible.. Park your vehicle in a safe area, opt for paid parking if that's what keeps the bike safe
