I was installing a teather strap last night, pulled off one of the ignition wires and Hooked up the teather to it, and the sled started with out the teather attached to it's switch. After completly removing the teather switch, and all wires from the ignition, I lifted up the Kill switch and started the sled right up.
So, the F5 firecat starts with a open loop, to make matters worse, you only need to lift the hood up about 2 inches to reach the openly exposed ignition wires and disconnect one. Is it just me, or is this just plain stupid? It's bad enough the Arctic Cat has uses the same key for almost every model, but to make it start with a open loop??
Time to buy a gas handlebar lock I guess...
