I'm hoping someone might be able to give me some insight into a 600SS that I've acquired. Its a 94 bike on a 95 plate and I've been restoring it after 20 years off the road. Ive nearly finished and the bike is running all ok but there are some peculiarities about the electrics that I'm not sure are correct or faulty (my experience is all with post 2000 bikes). Firstly, the starter motor will crank over even if its in gear, so will lurch forwards. Is this correct? If it is then I think its a simple job to add a reply across the starter and neutral light, just seems strange that it should do this. Secondly, it has a flip up side stand and a warning light on the clocks to say the side stand is down, but that doesn't seem to kill the engine if its put into gear. Again this seems like an easy fix with another relay but I wanted to check that this is all correct and there isn't a fault somewhere I haven't found yet. thanks
