Sorry, I was stunned by what you report your bike as doing.

The only way the neutral switch is supposed to kill the engine is if your kickstand is down and you release the clutch.

If you jumper over the kickstand switch, the bike should remain running no matter what.

As for the being shocked thing, beats me what the hell is going on in your bike : )

Connect the two switch wires together by connectors, solder or something similar.

The side stand switch should be kept in working order for SAFETY !!!

If the side stand spring for what ever reason does not hold the side stand up for
what ever reason and you go into a corner
at speed, just what do you think will happen ???

PUT A TOGGLE SWITCH ON THE WIRES SO IF YOUR THINK IT IS THE PROBLEM THE SWITCH WILL SHORT IT TAKING THE SIDE STAND SWITCH OUT OF HE CIRCUIT !!!

Really the only safe way from side stand pole vault is to remove side stand. I don't like to rely on safety measures like a switch its not always a positive measure of safety. Losing engine power when unexpected can be just as dangerous.
