The connector is to bypass the kickstand safety switch.

Xciting 500 / Re: Side Stand safety switch
« on: August 18, 2010, 03:39:06 PM »
There is no need to remove the sensor or cut anything to bypass the safety switch.
There is a bypass already on the bike!
It's located in the "Spark Plug Access Panel", resting ontop the fuel tank.
Just open that up, reach in, and unplug the current connector, and plug in the other one that's laying there.
This way you will still get the "sidestand down" light on the dash, but won't prevent you from turning the bike on.
Just make sure you use the hand brake anytime you are going to start it this way or that you are on and holding onto the brake.
I engage the handbrake when I park anyway so no danger of it getting away from me.
Just remember to kick the stand up!
