Task #08 - Side Stand
The ACE is equiped with a side stand only, on the left side of the bike. It only needs to be checked for damage or loss of return spring tension and for the safety cut-out switch proper operation.
Sit on the bike and keep it vertical. Check the side stand for proper movement and for return spring tension. A broken or damaged spring (1) can allow the side stand to drop while riding, causing it to scrape and causing the engine to quit.
To check the safety cut-out feature, sit on the bike and turn the ignition on. With the side stand down, the side stand light (6) on the tank gauge cluster should be illuminated. Move the side stand up and the light should go out.

Next, start the engine and with the clutch in, put the bike in gear. Now lower the side stand... the engine should stop as soon as you lower it.
