Bought the unit today. Haven't had any problems, but like someone else said; cheap insurance. I would hate to mess up a trip if the switch did go out. Thanks for the heads up

 

Now that's quite a push it I ever heard of one.

You can mark that one under what the heck was I thinking. I fixed it.

 

Just ordered the switch. Thanks

 

A little something for the DIY folks.

When you remove the 3 screws from the stock cover it will more than likely stick in place, I just go to the other side of the trike and use a wooden dowel and a slight tap with the hammer to break it loose. You may also have to unplug the 2 wires to the neutral switch on top of the transmission to gain access to the bottom bolt. One note, if your not comfortable doing this with the battery hooked up then unhook the positive side of the battery first.



Remove the cover carefully so you don't tare the gasket and this is what you will see behind the cover.



This is the back side of the stock cover with gasket still in place.



I didn't see any torque spec in the service manual for the 3 screws that hold the cover on, the manual just says to alternately tighten them until snug. Always remember if you test or use the new button make sure the trike is in neutral first, it would suck to have it take off without you on it.
