That should be it. Well check all the wiring while you're at it.

no, you'd need to jump the wires if you do that.

I may not be entirely correct with this, BUT... I believe you can bypass the switch on the kickstand by just connecting the two wires together. But then you'll be able to ride off with the kickstand down and crash.
