    Very close to cranking up the "new to me" Husky. ( I know... I've had it a month ... I'm slow). A reminder; this bike's a TE ... that came to me stripped of lights for hare scrambles riding.

    Questions:
    -Looking at wiring diagrams and my bikes harness I believe this bike never had a ignition key. That's fine... but so what...to start it, no flipping any switches .... just push the start button, right?

    -I understand that the wire from the ECU leading to the stop button can be sinked to ground with a switch hidden somewhere ... a theft deterrent. This will stop the plug from firing, but the start button will still turn the engine over, right?

    -How about using the wire(s) going to the "clutch in" switch? I'm not using that but a switch hidden somewhere wound prevent unwanted cranking. Huh?

    - With no ignition switch, lights and the horn simply work off their respective switches?

    Thanks, dave
