Seems pretty basic wording and clear to me, guess I am reading exactly what he wrote and not overthinking it or running off on tangents. But, whatever, not losing any sleep over the replies or if he tries it.

Seems Arizona storage based on what others post here is from May to October when it is too hot to ride?

Never too hot to ride! I ride to and from work everyday..Summer mornings are in high 70s to low 80s..only get hot around 4pm then cools down again..30-40 degree swings in temperature everyday is the norm...

If in doubt, why not set the kill switch to the off position, then crank for maybe a total of 10 seconds? Then put it to the on position and start it. No guess work involved.

Won't work! Engine won't crank with the switch in the kill position.

You're right, I forgot that part. Can you tell I'm one of those that don't use the kill switch regularly?
