im telling you guys im not crazy, its not a well known problem because not many people will have the key left on with the tether pulled for more than 5 minutes. When you hookup the tether all the different way you are all talking about, it WILL work, but go ahead and try it, but leave the key on for 15 minutes and then try and start it, your stator will be cooked. Many builders including Dave Therrien at DRT tried to figure this problem out for a while, he is Josh Creamers mechanic, and they somehow figured out how to fix it. Hooking up the tether on a KFX isnt the same as hookin it up on any other bike, at least were you wont hurt anything. Its not like all of us fall off and dont turn the key off for 15 minutes, but itl be that one time where your hurt or something, and its left on, then the next time you go to ride you need to replace the stator.
