I moved mine down past the bend in the handlebars so its pointed toward the mtn bar.
I also turned it slightly toward the gas tank cap so that it's not hard to get to.
I have 34 miles on now and I like the location.
I haven't ridden without a tether in 12 years, so I feel naked without that. Hence installing a Teth-air as soon I get a chance.

If you run handguards then to worries about trees at all. We find when the kill switch is in the up position your body deploys it more than a tree deploying it when it is in the front location. The o-ring helps for sure
We also have the throttle block with our exclusive billet kill button that is push and hold and is encapsulated.
Thank you,

Heres the one i am going to use as well, fast shipping :face-icon-small-sho

Here is my ten minute fix. Remove OEM switch, cut a piece of high density foam to slide into original location. Then zip tie OEM switch to bars.
Moved out of harms way, still functions like a normal kill switch and the cost was zero and didnt have to wait for any parts
Thats like a win win! Eric

Thanks for the tip on reverse kill switch.
Great idea for those that use tethers.

And the problem with .50 cents worth of o-rings is? Been riding for the last 16 years and seen more than my share of trees with not a single broken kill switch. This includes the wife who sometimes seems to prefer the trees. Not trying to say it does not happen, but if it does a tether is still a better bet. If sled is in the process of rolling you are not going to kill it with a kill switch reguardless. Has anyone worried about breaking the switch ever thought about how much force it takes to actually break the kill switch. If you have why are you not worried about the throttle, are they not part of the same assembly? Just a thought.
No, I really don't think about how much force it takes to break the kill switch. That hasn't stopped me from having to replace a few red buttons and yes, the whole switch.
Funny, I relocated my kill switch last year and guess where Polaris moved it to?
