I don't know what else to call them. recently bought this :
http://www.dimecitycycles.com/vintage-cafe-racer-caferacer-bobber-brat-chopper-custom-motorcycle-electronic-parts-retro-black-handlebar-mounted-kill-switch-21-1219.html
From the picture, this looks like the right type of switch, except for the 3 wire setup.
So, on the CBs it looks like the kill switches are the connecting type, which as i understand, there's a wire coming in, and another that goes to the coils. when they're in the off position, nothing's connected, when they're in the on position they're connected.
I think i've got the "grounding" type. so in the on position, only 2 are connected, in the off position all 3 are connected.
I need to think about this some more as I may be able to figure it out but is there any way to retro-fit this type of switch to the 2 wire "connecting" type? Or should i just give up and buy a different switch?
thanks
Jeff
