The key is located on the right side of the motorcycle, on the battery box. They key switch has three positions. The
first position is the off position (turned counter-clock wise). This will cause the motorcycle to be inoperable. The
second position is the "on" position (turned one position clock-wise). This position enables all electrical equipment.
In this seond position all electrical equipment can be turned off and on using the "RUN-STOP" switch on the right
handlebar. With the key "ON" and the "Run" switch in the "OFF" position none of the electrical equipment will be
functional. With the key "ON" and the "Run-Stop" switch in the "ON" position the motorcycle's electrical equipment
will be operational. The third position does the same as the second position with the addition of the auxillary driving
