ummm most bikes already come with a kill switch so might want to look into getting a stock one that is required for the bike

and as for alarm, i personally dont use one, i just have disc locks

Are you referring to a racing kill switch that cuts the ignition if you fall off? They are relatively inexpensive and wire into the kill switch on the bars.

I see a lot of cars that have a kill switch hidden somewhere that either cuts the power to the fuel pump or ignition. Hide it wherever you'll know that it is that somenoe else won't find it.

The tip sensor already does this.

Ya, I hear ya. But try telling that to the track officials They are unimpressed with tip sensors and always required a kill switch that attached to the rider. And every time I went through tech inspection they made me pull the lanyard to prove it killed the fuel pump.

The stand has a sensor that kills the engine (when on gear). You can use that as a kill switch...

As far as alarms, I only trust the best in the industry = Directed (DEI - Viper).
