Thanks.
Don't start the bike, just flip the kill switch to the run position and leave it there, then turn the big one (acc, run, off) switch to run, let it go through everything, then to off, and repeat this 5x, leaving the kill switch to the on position.

Sorry, i'm horrible at explaining

The '14 trike owners manual says to shut it off using the engine stop switch. But I can't ever remember using it while still on the throttle.
