Have you considered looking for a local shop that will re-build it ??
Very often, that is a good option.
With the added bonus that they will test it first to verify your diagnosis !! :)

Yeah. I'm going to tear it apart and look at it with one of my electrician/mechanic buddies this weekend. I just wanted to get some feelers out there in case it's totally shot.

First bike I had when I moved to Tenerife was an old (VERY old!) Peugeot 150cc scooter (all I could afford at the time) When the starter wouldn't work I took it to the local bike shop (labour is real cheap over here). They found that all it needed was a new set of brushes in the starter motor. Very little time, & very little €€€€€€€ & I was back on the road. :2tup:
