    Does your bike have a sidestand light?

    Just curious, my old CBR had a light to let you know the stand was down, and my gix doesn't. Never really noticed many, and they aren't all that useful really.

    The RGV has a switch but it only turns the engine off when its in gear.

    The RGV, and most other bikes built in the last 25 years.

    Nope but the gixxer kills the engine if you put it in gear with the stand down

    The guy said, heard something funny so he kicked it up again...

    Honda doesn't.

    The RGV will happily start in gear with the stand down (switch disconnected or broken)
