A bit of a strange one. My 03 ST4s used to start with the side stand down if in neutral. Also if side stand up and in gear if clutch is disengaged.
Now with a replacement 5AM ECU (EX 1098) that was running in a 2003 ST4s the side stand needs to be up and the clutch disengaged in neutral to start. I thought this was how the 02 and earlier bikes were configured so maybe it was flashed with an earlier model ECU file?
My question would be if i had the original file from my old ECU flashed into this ECU would it bring this procedure back to how it was? Also would it leave the lockset and immobiliser still active for this ECU alone and still functional. I guess I could start it on the center stand for warm up but worried about the clutch switch failing in the middle on nowhere and preventing the bike running. In this situation I could just bridge the switch wires temporarily.
Thanks,
Nick.
