yes the post has broken off and taken half the side with it, damn there is quite a bit wrong with this new toy, but i'm sure some good loving will fix it up good as new, now if i can just find out where to get another switch block.

I bought a replacement a while back ... but it's got a broken lug so I didn't fit it.

( I think....and that can be dangerous, indeed)
Mine is a late 90's Suzuki GSXR 750 or 1100 or VERY similar.....

I saw them all over E-Bay a while back......they were the same except for the choke lever, it was bent as opposed to my straight one with the tab on top.....

Did that help?

My locater tab is also broken, but I just clamp it onto some friction tape (cloth electrician's tape) wrapped a couple of time on the bar.

Works like a charm......BTW: MacGiver calls me......... Rolling Eyes Very Happy Wink
