We flipped that switch on my wife's new ATV this past weekend (when she wasn't looking) and she was like "What the f@#$, my ATV won't start" :lol: :twisted:

Ha!

Really, who doesn't have a kill switch story?

Btw, the similarity is striking isn't it?

Thanks Mini Mike!

That happened to me just the other day when I went to the tire shop to pick up my Grizzly after they mounted my Bighorns. The tire dude had used the kill switch instead of just turning the key off. It took me about 20 seconds of going through my 'will not start' checklist/procedure (memorized) until I figured it out. Being a pilot has it's advantages: you're taught to memorize important checklists and procedures in case you need to use one in a hurry and under stress. Me thinks that Mini Mike was a pilot in a past life :)
