Clutch switch bypass not possible yet

I’ve done some testing with what would happen if you try to bypass the clutch switch ex: looping clutch switch connector together so the bike sees the clutch is always pulled and leaving it open and seeing what happens. I’ve determined that in 2-3 ride cycles with the circuit looped the bike will set a check engine light and continuously flash a F1 warning on the cluster. Now this isn’t a permanent code once you set everything back to how it was it will resolve in another 2-3 ride cycles. The reason behind this is the ecu detects a rationality error thinking it’s implausible to shift gears up and down, raise and lower wheel speed without the clutch sensor circuit being open at some point. Now I have not determined if leaving the clutch circuit open and the ecu not seeing the circuit close occasionally, that we are stuck with a cel or error and the only way I see a solution is someone pinning the ecu out and finding the limits of what causes a cel/error light to come on with a oscilloscope or logging. Maybe someone will figure out how to with an ecu flash or perhaps a dongle transistor that will keep the ecu happy. Thanks

Thought the stock handbars felt a little low and wanted to change the look, ended up going with the Odi flight RC high bars and Emig lock on grips with the old drz I-Cam. Very happy with the turn out but be warned the front brake line from the master to the abs pump is tight and the I-cam once adjusted makes the throttle pretty quick on A-mode. I don’t believe you’ll be able to run CR high bars without moving cables and brake lines around the triple tree. Also running nicecnc mirror deletes and eBay/amazon mirror
