The other day we were crossing an intersection, I went across and the guy behind me was waiting for a truck. The truck stopped short to let him go, my buddy takes off and tries to wave to say thank you, he hits a clump of ice and falls onto his kill switch right in front of the guy that stopped for him. It was pretty funny, he was embarrased starting his sled back up in the middle of the road.

i did the same thing on saturday me and my bro were riding a lake and when we were on the beach he went to go get the shovels from the house to build a jump on the the lake anyway i hit his killswitch and pulled his key out he was so worried he even called r dad to come and get him and the sled and it was a funny site (he didnt think it was so funny thought)

I pulled my plug wires when I went in to eat last week. And of course, who remembers that? I pulled on that thing like 40 times before I remembered. What a tard I felt like.

 

[stormrider62033]

yeah that's a good ole fashioned joke ,push the kill switch in ,or pull the plug wire's ,us parctical jokes' do that alot to each other ,cheap quality entertainment

I love the old indies, people take your keys it really surprises them when you pull up a minute later. They ask you how you started your sled without the key. I just tell them it's magic, but in all reality you just pull the harness off the key switch.

 

[650triple]

I have done that before. I have a old indy with one.

i kmow, that would be the funniest prank. just stop there on your sled and when your buddie stops, pull up beside him and quickly turn off his machine and take the key out and ride in circles around him, and pretend your going to ride up and give him his key back and dust him!! i'm going to do that to my friend this weekend, but, just the killswitch-hitting part though, because hes really big.

The only bad thign with the old INDT trick of disconnecting teh key wires is that it makes so it easy to steel as well.

 

[Toben]

yea i hit the kill switch once while hitting a small jump on a trail, but i was the last in line so no one saw it.

 

[powdermadd440]

ya, i dropped my new sled off at the garage the other day, and i was yanking and then i looked at my kill switch, it was up, and my key wasn't turned on, so i flicked it on and made sure no one was looking and then the guy i bought it from came over and hes like watch out and he started for me. but i could have if i had the key on.

Take a ruber band or a small hair tie and rap it around your killswitch real tight to were you have to hold it down to kill the engine. Believe me its saved my life a few times. It really sucks when you go to jumpd on the other side climbing and hit that baby. Try it, It works wonders. None of these situations will ever happen again.

My dad and I stopped at a gas station last weekend. And we took the keys out and put them in out pocket and we walk away. Well we come back out finish our candy bars and I got to start my sled and I made sure the kill switch isn't down and I pulled like 15 times and couldn't figure it out then I relized that I had the in my pocket. My dad was just sitting there laughing.

 

[SnowMan110]

I pulled on my sled for 1 hour and a half until realizing the key wasn't all the way turned on..
I got some exhaust pops too from tryin to make it fire :[

 

[mackinsaw]

yup, been there done that. me and my friend must've pulled that damb sled over, over 80 times before we remembered to check the kill switch. man did we ever feel dumb!

 

[5xcsp]

Today i went to start my sled when i with with a couple friends and we were just in a gas station. Get on it turn on the key pull it over about 15 times then put the choke on pull it over 2 or 3 times then i look and the kill switch is down so i pulled it up and pulled it over about 10 times to get it started because i flooded it. My friends were stting there laughing because they new the kill switch was down but didnt tell me [B)]

 

[Kawasaki_Kid]

i was riding quads with my friend one weekend at his grandparants place. and there is a corner on one of there trials that when you turn it for some reason it always turns the key, i did it liek 5 times and everytime i thought i broke it!

 

[Rutagur]

I remember back in '93, my dads freind bought a XLT Special, and he would alwasy use the switch to shut it off.. so being a kid I turned the key and watched him pull and pull. It was funny to me.
