O.K. so my next question is.. do I really need the switch at all. I have only found a replacement Honda (used) lever with a switch on it. But have found tons of others without the switch. I have a habbit of putting the bike in neutral before i start it.. and honestly..does the switch even work.
We the cable broke.. I attempted to start it in gear.. and it would but then stall... I fianlly started it in neuatral.. rolled it a bit while on it..and kicked it into first and she rode off ..luckily I was only a couple blocks from the house, so i rode in first until I got home with it.
So again I ask.. do I really need the switch?
