Where is the tip over switch located?
 
My 07 SV650 tipped over yesterday :mad: and now it wont start. The FI light is on so from what I have researched it might be the tip over switch but I can't find where it is. Any help would be appreciated.

The tip over was very slow and didn't cause any damage besides a fender scratch and a cracked reflector. I was able to support it on the way down but couldn't stop it from going.

Which way did it fall? is there any damage to the side stand cut off switch? Could be that the bike thinks you've still got the side stand down maybe?

Having said that, I'm crap at mechanicals so I'm sure someone who knows what they're talking about will be along shortly :)

The tip-over switch resets itself, doesn't it?

When I stuck my current bike under a car it cut out as it went down, then fired up first prod of the button once it was upright.

Yes, it should do. Sorry Chevy, don't know where it is off the top of my head- mines always reset itself automatically.

Yes it does, the TOS is only fitted to Pointys and is located near the battery.

...or check underneath the clutch level perch to see if the idiot switch is still connected.

Ok I'll check all that but it fell to the right, non kickstand side, and like I said I helped it lay down so it didn't fall and barely even went down. It fired back up for about 10 seconds and now it wont start.

Most likely the kill switch, but...

How far was it on its side and how long for?
