Has anyone had the problem that the ignition comes on with the key but the engine will not stop when the key is turned off and must be stopped on the kill switch ? I would like to know where to start looking. I have replaced the ignition with a new one (as the original was truly worn out with corrosion) and the bike worked fine for a while from just the key. I assume it is an earth problem, but could use the wisdom of the group ?
