Common questions
What is the function of a neutral safety switch on a motorcycle?
The neutral safety switch prevents the engine from starting unless the transmission is in neutral. This is a crucial safety feature that protects against accidental movement or lurching when the rider engages the starter.
Is this SMP switch a direct replacement for my stock neutral safety switch?
Yes, this SMP Neutral Safety Switch is manufactured to OEM specifications and designed as a direct, drop-in replacement for V-twin neutral safety switches on compatible Harley-Davidson and Indian Motorcycle models.
