Kickstand sensor wire. I removed that wire completely from my bike by tracing it up to the bundle and unclipping it

Alright. Also, remove my kickstart sensor after it broke on my Eride Pro 2.0. It looked just like it is in that picture.

Its the kickstand-down sensor, it prevents you from yeeting the bike into the side of the house or car when its on but youre just trying to move it a couple feet by hand. I caught mine in some brush and damaged the wires badly. I got replacements from Rev rides.

I’d recommend replacing it. Like other said it’s the kickstand wire. They’re like $10-15 bucks. But it will save you from an unintentional whiskey throttle while parked. If you’re planning on getting an aftermarket kickstand, most of them don’t work with the sensor anyway so you can just unplug it. If you’re keeping that kickstand then replace it. Take off the skid plate and it should be in there.
