Default Alarm question - Flameout wire

I am trying to install a 2-way alarm on my Honda CBR F4 2000' It has anti-hijack feature that allows to remotely disable the engine. In the manual it says I have to cut the flameout wire and connect 2 cables from the alarm to each end of cut cable. Which wire should i cut?

Sounds like your difusing a bomb. LOL! What color are the wires? Do the instructions say which color to cut? Maybe it will say which wire is which by the color of the wire. THE COLORS MAN THE COLORS!!!! AHHHHHHHHHH

Unfortunately the manual doesn't say what color is the wire. It only shows I should cut "flameout wire" that goes from ignition switch. It should stop the engine when i press the button.

Lol, the bomb, you werent that far. Last time I connected it to the pink wire just before ICM and the bike wouldn't start afterwards. Thought I burned ICM but fortunately it was only ignition switch. Took over a week to find the problem and order the part. So this time I wanna be sure before I connect anything. The weather is too nice to have the bike difused

I dont know the term flameout ... but it should be either the ignition wire or starter wireyou are going to interrupt depending on what you want to install the alarm should have feature for both.. the starter wire you can interrupt so if someone has your key the bike wont start.. then there is an ignition kill so if someone rides your bike away you can interrupt the ignition wire so the bike will shut down.

OK, so I connected it to the kill switch. The bike has stopped when I pressed the button on the alarm, but the 10A fuse got burned.

I received relays with the alarm, I think I should use them so that the fuse doesn't burn but where and how? Any help would be appreciated. They ask $250 to install it at the dealer [:@]

I had the same problem with mine. I even added a reley for each circut (4 in total). I tried diode isolating, reley configurations, all kinds of things. I even had everything working, the engine would start and idle, I could kill it, set the alarm, but then the engine under load would bog down and missfire? I'm doing the 600rr swinger conversion and a bunch of other upgrades/mods in the next couple of weeks, I have all the parts just need the time, but at the same time I'm going to finnaly resolve this issue, I will post what the fix is once I've found it. I'll try to do a wiring diagram and post it as well.

Al.
