That's what it is, it's testing the side stand, clutch, gear position switches.
There are a few steps to the procedure, I have it on the disc if you want I can post the procedure.

It's something like:
Put in gear, clutch out - no crank
In gear,clutch out, side stand down - no crank
In gear, side stand down, clutch in - no crank
In gear, side stand up, clutch in - crank
