There is one male connector, and two female connectors down in there.

If your side stand shutoff switch is currently operational, simply unplug the male connector and plug it into the other female connector. Now your engine will run with the side stand down.

Just switch the plugs, that's why they're there, to circumvent the shutoff, or to restore its function.

Don't cut any wires, don't add any fuses, and do not, under any circumstance, dick around with any of the other sh** down in there, don't even look at it, it's off limits, you're lucky we even let you disconnect the side stand, so you better not roll that throttle to impress some hotties without you on it, or that 500X is going for a little ghost ride, and it weighs 437 pounds and will definitely f*** sh** up.

down where boss?  can't seem to find any extra female connectors either by the carb service hole or down by the side stand switch...  could it be that they don't have the extra female connector in some of 'em 500s???

Inside the spark plug access compartment in the center of the scoot.

You'll see the fuel tank on the right, and on the left side the connector to the side stand switch. There's an extra plug there, just switch the male, put the side stand down and see if it starts. It's a bypass, so no cutting wires or anything.
