"still running". My sport bike uses vacuum from the engine to open the gas feed. If you dump your bike, you're expected to stall it (like I did), so the gas stops. I don't know if this is universal - I don't really understand mechanical stuff much, but I had to look this up to explain to my buddy (who supposedly DOES understand this stuff) why there was another hose up from the carb area back into the gas selector valve. And he still doesn't understand the "prime" setting that bypasses the cutoff. -- We are geeks. Resistance is voltage over current.
