I understand that it is a switch to connect the battery to the sarter. But why not just make the ignition switch the actual switch?

Is it because the amps are high so the switch would be too big to comfortably use? Because if that is the case, wouldn’t a simple mechanical solution be better?

    Oooh you are talking about motorbikes. In my mind a bike is the manual peddle bicycle kind and I was wondering what kind of bicycle has a solenoid.

      yeah it’s kind of funny how the world can’t decide if they are called motorcycles or motorbikes or bikes
