I want to be able to start my 2011 500 without holding in the brake lever or putting it in neutral. My 2004.5 400 is this way from the factory. I can hear a switch click somewhere but haven't found it yet, if I bypass the switch and solder the wires together will the brake light be on all the time. Can someone explain how I could do this and where this switch is located. There are no wires go up the handle bar to the brake.

I have a 2011 500 as well and the choke stays out by itself I think there is an adjustment on the choke knob to stiffen it up so choke does not retract when you let go of it. Hope this helps.

I installed a led light bar with the Polaris factory relay and after getting it all wired up I turned the key over once to make sure the lights worked and all was good. I checked it again and the quad is totally dead, no powering up or turning over. I did notice that the ground and power wire...
