Can't understnad the reason for its existence or why the starter trigger would have a diode accross it, unless it's a peculiarity of the way the relay works...?
I'm looking at haynes SV manual page 9-36
Anyone else have a clue why this thing is there, and also where is it on the bike?

I think I came across this the other day, I pointed at something and my dad said it was a diode, i think he mentioned it was for the clutch - but the engine was running at 5000 rpm so i didnt hear properly. Anyway, the diode in question was in the area of the voltage regulator / rectifier, on the subframe. The best description of it I can give is a connector with a stubbly thing connected
Might be of some help to you, sorry if its not...
