alright well everything on my rebuild works fine. During my last race at budds creek i noticed my killswitch wasnt doing anything!! (jordan was there, i was laughin at it for no reason)

now i have the "baldwin wiring kit" for the yfz. I thought it might be the ground on the killswitch since the frame is powdercoated, i filed alittle off and no effect... it'll run but wont shut off when the killswitch is pulled out

any help?

you think that it just wont ground? i dont know exactly how the killswitch works

I think you have to get to the bare-metal to ground it.

Pro designs are junk. I have had 3 of them and had nothing but trouble with them

I have a pro armor on my son's 300ex and it seems to do pretty good.

The pro designs I have seem to need to be cleaned out on the inside more often, and I can never seem to get the tether to pull out when I need it to. Last time I fell off it ripped my belt loop on my carharts and also completely ripped the metal attachment piece, yet the tether stayed attached to the killswitch and my wheeler kept chugging along in third gear....

The pro-armor seems like a cheaper version of the pro-design except with a nice T handle, however they seem to pull out too easy.
