Kill switch good idea or no?

[camcam1144]

I want to put a hidden kill switch on my bike as a complete power cutoff to deter thieves. Any advice? Or bad idea?

Track yes, street no, imo. I don't want anything on it that will kill the bike while riding on public roads.

Well I could get a secure toggle switch I'm not afraid of if flicking off while riding. Just more wondering how to do it. And why yes for a track bike? Just curious.

I've done it on supermotos before, Ive never had a problem with the bike shutting off while riding. Just wire it inline with the current kill switch

There required on the track in order to stop a runaway. Don't want that thing ghost riding into traffic. Also, it's extra safety for the workers trying to get stuff out of the way.

I've installed hidden kill switches on every one of the many bikes I've owned over the past 25 years.

I've never had a failure, nor do I worry about the possibility.

I've had it save my bike in 100% of all attempted thefts.

Needless to say, I recommend a hidden kill switch as the most cost-effective security measure you can possibly install on a bike.
