Yamaha YZF-R125 Service Manual: Starting circuit cut-off system operation

Yamaha YZF-R125 Service Manual / Electrical system / Electric starting system / Starting circuit cut-off system operation

When at least one of the above conditions has been met, the starting circuit cut-off relay is closed and the engine can be started by pressing the start switch "
