Hi there,
Been a long time since I've been here, time flies...
So I have a question about the safety relay. I have a XS650 chopperish thing that has a very simplified wiring harness. When I bought the bike it was already in this state so I don't have any spare parts. The bike is kick only and I ridden it like this for 6 years. But I'm getting a little older and the comfort of an electric starter is lurking. So I'm collecting all the needed parts. I want to wire it as simple as possible with a hidden starter button. I do like the safety feature of a safety relay in case I accidentally hit the button or the switch has a short. So I need a safety relay, but it seems there are no new ones/reproduction on the market. Maybe I can find a used one, but I don't really like using a 45 year old electrical part and the thing is big too...
Are there maybe universal starter relays with a cut off function build in? Or other new universal safety relays? I did some searching, but it seems it's not a very common part. All the help is welcome.
