{{Kickstand Switch Hazard}}

;Notes
: Made using MY2016 SR, should apply to 2014+ S/SR and probably DS/DSR

; Parts
* HALL SENSOR SIDESTAND SWITCH ZERO P/N 45-02413-01 for ~$30 USD
*: It looks like an Asahi Denso CE122 sensor used on some KTM bikes.
*: Ensure it has a blue, pinkish red, and a black wire

;Tools
* 2.5mm Allen key (for switch)
* 3mm Allen key (for battery side cover)
* Side cutters for zip ties
* Long slender fingers to reach connector

; Steps
: '''Removal'''
# Ensure bike is powered off and contactor de-energized.
# Remove the three 3mm hex bit fasteners with plastic washers holding the left-hand plastic battery side cover on.
# Using a fine slotted head screwdriver, remove both upper and lower "bite clamps" on sheet metal on left side of battery.
# Cut zip ties attached to the bite clamps.
# Unfasten both 2.5mm hex bit fasteners securing old switch.
# Disconnect the old 3 wire switch's connector located above half-circle cutout on left side of battery.
#: It has a white triangular female housing.
#: It helps to lay on one's side and reach up along the battery wire management area/tray.
#: Use one finger (left hand) to hold white, bike-side mating connector in place and take note of the side of the triangle containing the clip.
#: It helps '''A LOT''' to push both sides of connector together before depressing retaining clip or pulling connector out.
:; Replacement
# Connect 3 wire weatherproof connector to sensor connector.
#: Take note of which side of the triangle connector for the new switch has the clip.
#: Full-seating makes an audible click.
# Replace zip ties on the cable management bite clamps.
# Route the switch cable the same way (above frame cross member to not encounter as much road debris).
# Clean the switch mount of debris.
# Carefully hand-tighten fasteners in and out to clean threads and get a feel for not-cross threading them.
# Fasten the side switch in with both 2.5mm hex bit fasteners.
#: It's a countersunk plastic housing, and soft aluminum mount.
#: Don't over-torque!
# Ensure there is no strain on cable especially where it joins the sensor housing.
#: This is a common place for it to break.
#: You may want to place extra heatshrink insulation here to protect.
# Replace side cover.
#: Do not over-torque or cross thread.
